Boundary Wall Leaning Forward
Sent to Buckinghamshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8448036.
FixMyStreet ref: 8395509.
The retaining wall outside 67 and 68 Wyatt Close looks like it is leaning forward and since we bought the house it looks like it has moved.
Also, the pavement at the top of the steps outside of 68 Wyatt Close is very uneven and would cause a trip hazard leading down the steps.
You closed my previous post as you say it is not the responsibility of the council. We have evidence from the previous owner of the property confirming that it is the councils responsibility. There are emails from November 2020 and Bucks Council confirm the wall is yours and comes under the structures team. The reference report number was 40164575.
