Very poor "repair" of large pothole - still dangerous

This pothole has been reported in January - not by me. My photos show what it was like on 5/2/25, and then again on 12/2/25, when some tarmac appeared to have been dumped in the hole. It's possible that this was done by an individual trying (and failing) to improve the situation, but if this is supposed to be an official repair, then the Council should not be employing those responsible. There is another botched repair a little further east, along with further unrepaired potholes between the junction and the bends at Myddlewood. I will report these separately.
