Fallen tree blocking entire footpath
Reported via mobile in the Obstruction caused by tree category anonymously at 20:44, Thursday 23 July 2026
Sent to Gloucestershire County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 9837582.
If you cross the first bridge and walk along the path to get to the second bridge, it is right there. The path runs along the edge of the tip. I got stuck there with my horse as it’s too narrow to turn around and my horse ended up being injured from it. I spoke to another rider on my way home who advised me she reported this a month ago! This is terrible!
