Laurel Hedge blocking over half the pavement

Social Distancing is impossible due to a laurel hedge blocking more than half the pavement to pedestrians. This pavement used to be wide enough to pass others without stepping into the road every time. The hedge is outside of a boundary wall so may be the responsibility of the Council? No chance of 2 metre separation here until it is cut back. It has been like this for decades now is the time to clear our pavements of obstructions to make walking safer.
