Path between Jeffs Terrace and the Spendlove Centre

Just to confirm that the Town Clerk has again chased the cutting of these overgrown borders with the County Council who are responsible for managing them. We cannot dictate when they will be done but they should be cut at each visit of the County Councils contractors. You can of course also contact your County Councillor, Rodney Rose to lodge your concerns and ask for swifter action to support the Town Clerks efforts. Use the OCC website to contact your Councillor.

I noticed this morning that the overgrowth between the bridge and the station has been trimmed back, which is great. Thank you to whoever made that happen.

The problem further up Dyers Hill still remains (as of this morning). Anyone wanting to snag their clothes, get scratched by thorns or indeed subject a child in a pushchair to being whipped in the face by the overgrowth should continue to use the footpath. All others, please continue to hop on and off the pavement into the road as you see fit - it's good exercise and certainly wakes you up for the day ahead!

Apologies. I didn't look at the other posts since last reading this on 14th!

See my post of the 15th July, This is the responsibility of Oxfordshire County Council and the Town Clerk is chasing for this problem to be resolved for the very reasons you state. I hope it is resolved soon.

It would be good to see the vegetation trimmed on the pavement on Dyers Hill for all those that walk to the station. In some places the brambles and nettles leave less than 2 Feet of space (less than 609.6mm) (!!!).

The footpath to Jeffs Terrace & by the footpath to the station have been reported to Oxfordshire County Council and chased today by the Town Clerk. The Hundley Way area is not a Town Council responsibility to manage but we are looking to what can be done in this area.

Naomi, same response, but I'll pass both on to the Tiwn Clerk for action

Emily, you should report this to the Town Clerk through the Town Council page on the Charlbury website. He can ensure those whose responsibility this is are informed of the problem.

They need to cut back the weeds at the side of the path down to the station too.

Is it the town council's responsibility for organising the clearing the weeds,brambles,nettles,ivy & elder that is growing on Hundley Way and over the wall in front of 29 - 45 The Green. I have tried to cut some of it myself but there is far too much there to remove. Many of the weeds are growing through the wall and will eventually cause it to fall down. Who would I need to contact regarding having it weeded and the dead stuff removed?

The Town Clerk has confirmed that this is the responsibility of Oxfordshire County Council & will report the concern to them asking for it to be remedied.

Would appreciate if the party concerned could do something about this as getting sick of being stung! I would do it myself but don't have the necessary tools

Who is responsible for cutting the grass down this pathway beyond the tennis courts. Only it has became very overgrown of late - a lit of stinging nettles etc.
