Walton pond has rats

Reported via desktop in the Grass cutting category anonymously at 12:01, Wednesday 18 June 2025

Sent to Aylesbury Town Council 2 days, 2 hours, 13 minutes later. FixMyStreet ref: 7727776.

Walton pond is now drained. Bullrushes have spread to about 90% of the pond. A number of rats are now living in the bullrushes and openly foraging in the dirty mud. The bullrushes all need pulling out. Now would be an ideal time to do that with dry weather and no water in the pond.
