Amongst all the other potholes down this road, this one is particularly dangerous. It has taken out both tyres on my left hand side of my car, meaning I need two replacement tyres and breakdown recovery.

This road has taken out my tires on numerous occasions. Please can someone from Bromley council contact me on the provided email or phone number to arrange compensation for the damage done to my car.
