Because the roots of a protected redwood tree have raised the road, severe ponding of water occurs adjoining the church car park. By email on 26 February 2016 @ 14:57 highways and traffic said the issue would be dealt with by a small works order. No action has been taken and the ponding has worsened.

You responded when this was last raised that work had been completed. No work has been undertaken since February 2016 and I can only assume that the writer was confused by action taken to fill the depression close to the lychgate on the other side of the church. Action is particularly necessary as the car park is used by many with limited mobility. As mentioned previously the church would not object to the edge of the car park being raised to match any necessary raising of the edge of the carriageway.
