    This very large pothole continues to develop. It's been there in its current form for over 4 months. As of 22 July 2025 my what3words position was https://w3w.co/ compacts.deflated.spoiled The pothole is about 1.2m long, 0.4m wide and 0.3m deep. I know of at least two compensation claims against this problem. It's especially nasty with a sharp edge on the roadside that will cut the inner wall of a tyre, if one is unfortunate to drop into it (forced over by downhill traffic...)
