Overgrown public footpath, briars, nettles on footpath & overgrown hedges from neighbouring house

Reported via mobile in the Overgrown/hanging Vegetation category anonymously at 22:03, Wednesday 24 June 2026

Sent to Rutland County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 9678786.

The footpath is overgrown with nettles & brambles from below & the neighbouring house is not helping the situation by allowing their hedges to overgrow so as to stop public walking along public footpath adjacent to their property.
