This pothole is on the corner of the bend, just after Woodlands Park Homes, and therefore difficult to avoid due to on coming traffic coming from the other direction. The pothole is that deep it is sure to damage any vehicle that hits it even at lower speeds as seen from my buckled alloy and damaged tyre that had only been fitted less than a month ago. Very dangerous and will now cost me a new alloy. Looking at google images this road has been repaired recent to Oct 2022 but has since deteriorated and needs immediate repair or there will be a serious accident from somebody swerving to miss this pothole or more damage to vehicles using the road!
