We came across a number of potholes in Finedon Road as you head into Irthlingborough.
Mary Gager also got in touch to let us know about a pothole on the A509.
She said: “There is a growing pothole on the A509 between Wollaston and Bozeat.

But it’s not all bad news as work is being carried out to make improvements to some of our roads.

And over in Corby, Occupation Road is set to close for three weeks next month while resurfacing work is carried out.
The advice from North Northants Council for anyone who wants to report a pothole or any other highways problems is to do this through the online Street Doctor service as it allows residents to track the status of the repair.
