A local councillor warned there could be an “impending catastrophe” in a Sefton Road with potholes "the size of craters" which the council refuses to maintain.
The unadopted road, Knob Hall Lane in Southport, has been the subject of an ongoing row over who should look after it for many years.
Built in the 1830s by the Hesketh family as part of their estate, ever since a ‘breach’ of agreement between the family and Southport corporation in the 1930s, there has been much back and forth over who should look after the road.
