Uneven pathway

Reported via desktop in the Footways and Pavement damage category anonymously at 10:35, Tue 22 April 2025

Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later

Several people have pointed out that one of the flagstones on the path from Mill Lane towards Dog Close (next to the tall bamboo) is standing well proud of the others, and one elderly parishioner said she had nearly tripped on it. The bamboo has also grown extensively and very high, and it may be causing the flagstone problem as shoots from it have sometimes appeared in the gaps between stones. In any case the church's PCC would be happy for the bamboo to be removed before it causes greater problems, eg. to the stone wall between the churchyard and the neighbouring house. I attach two photos to show the offending flagstone and its location beside the bamboo.

  • The step has not been fixed yet and the bamboo is growing vigorously underneath it appearing in the various gaps between the flag stones, especially after the recent heavy rain.
