Badly damaged front alloy wheel when we hit this pothole at 7:00pm on Sun 20th Feb after visiting friends in a nearby village.
The pothole is one metre from the edge of the road, as it was raining and a very dark night it was full of water and very difficult to spot.
It's approx 80cm x 80cm and almost 20cm deep.
The damage was severe enogh to deflate the tyre instantly resulting in a difficult wheel change in the dark and wet
