Brambles and shrubs allsides of the cemetery

Reported via mobile in the Open spaces category anonymously at 20:50, Tuesday 6 August 2024

Sent to Buckinghamshire Council 21 hours, 25 minutes later. FixMyStreet ref: 6324802.

All sides of the cemetery have overgrown brambles, weeds and shrubs which are scratching cars as they pass this is a regular problem as its not maintained regularly enough . Sadly the strimming around the trees and grave stones inside the perimeter rarely gets done either
