There is an extremely large and deep pothole that is unavoidable on the north bound B4378 just past Oakfield Farm. It is 900mm long by 600mm wide and 50mm deep. I hit it the other night in the dark and rain and damaged the alloy wheel on my Aston Martin.

I am unsure how long the issue has been there but by looking at the size of the crater in the floor I would say it has been there a while.
