Reported on the 31st July 2025. Up until yesterday there was one Tesco trolley abandoned at this location, it is now full of rubbish. Today someone has abandoned a Lidl trolly next to it. Please remove both before they fill up with more rubbish. They are both blocking the street and preventing access to buggies and wheelchair users.

1st of August addition: Merton Council have already responded that this is private land. This is a public footpath that Merton is responsible for keeping clear.
