Light shines far across road and illuminates back garden

Reported via desktop in the Other Lighting Issue category by Warren Wright at 15:30, Thu 12 May 2022

Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later

28 Nelson Close Wallingford faces an LED street light in Station Road. When the LED replaced the Sodium Vapour lumen the angle of throw changed. As a result the light casts far across the road and reaches entirely into my back garden. We have lost any 'dark sky' and now live with a perpetually illuminated plot. Not a matter of urgency, as I gave it time to see the effect, but I would appreciate your readjusting the lamp so it covers the road/pavement below and not much more. Best regards, Warren Wright
