Pothole on the B4113 near Stoneleigh Park Warwickshire

by MightyMouth

03 May 2010

I was leaving Stoneleigh Park on Sunday 02 May 2010 at about 9am in the morning. My son and I were going to get something to drink at the petrol station on the round about at the intersection of the b4113 and the A46 which is about 3 miles away. About half a mile after leaving the main entrance to Stoneleigh park we hit the pothole in question with bent both wheel on the nearside which resulted in a flat tire on the rear though the front stayed up so I was able to drive the car away after changing the rear. The pothole is 124cm long 36cm wide and 10cm deep and directly in the wheelpath. The road was very busy but I managed to get pictures showing length and width using the camera I took to the Stoneleigh Kit Car show and a tape measure I had with me. In full resolution the tape measure can be read clearly.

I to hit this pothole on leaving the kitcar show, I could not miss it as there was a car coming on the opposite direction. The car kibrated all the way home (200 miles) and on taking the wheel off yesterday it has a large flat on the inside edge. Very annoyed!

Thanks for reporting this pothole on the website. If you are interested in finding out whether the council should have been maintaining this road better and whether they would be liable in the case of a damages claim please visit the "step-by-step guide" in the "how to claim" tab.rnrnThanks
