Hatfeild mead - green fence outgrown

Reported via mobile in the Dangerous Street Tree category anonymously at 11:55, Tuesday 4 November 2025

Sent to Merton Council less than a minute later. Council ref: SRQ-1262584-L7Z9B4.

Fence sticks out 400mm out of the boundary while every other one is inside the boundary 300mm.

This creates vehicles restriction as well as not being able to see if anyone comes out of the block while driving making it very dangerous for residents.

Please trim back that bush in line with the rest of the fencing on the estate
