Overgrown Vegetation in the Village

The Parish Council has received a number of concerns about overgrown vegetation making it difficult for parishioners to use the pavements/footpaths, particularly those who are in wheelchairs or with pushchairs. The Parish Council does not have the power to complete works on land not owned by the Parish Council and would suggest that reports are made directly to Warwickshire County Council who have responsibility for roads and pavements on https://www.warwickshire.gov.uk/reportit or if you have problems using the online system call them on 01926 410 410. It would be appreciated if anyone who owns land with vegetation that encroaches onto public footpaths/pavements could keep this trimmed back.

Who to contact about issues in the village such as fly-tipping, potholes, and overgrown vegetation.

The Parish Council is aware that it can be difficult to know who you should contact when you notice an issue in the village such as fly-tipping, potholes, broken grit bins, damaged road signs, and overgrown vegetation.  Unfortunately, there isn’t a single point of contact for such issues as they are all owned or managed by different organisations but the Parish Council would like to try to offer some guidance to help make the reporting of issues simpler.

Assets that the Parish Council own and are therefore responsible for:

Playing Field and all its contents

Streetlights

3 noticeboards (outside playing field, outside the pub, on Village Hall)

Grit bins

Bench opposite The Kitchen

Bench on Walnut Bank

Bench near Sourlands Pool

Bench outside Village Hall

Old Water Pump near ‘The Little House’

Dog waste bins

Defibrillator and defib housing (old telephone box at entrance to ‘The Kitchen’)

 

Services that the Parish Council arrange/are responsible for:

Emptying of dog waste bins

Grass cutting of all areas owned by the Parish Council
