The hole was spotted on Monday evening, by Nick Frudd, a Bispham resident who also sent in footage.
Nick said: “It looks like it could be really dangerous if driven over. The tarmac around it is only a few centimetres thick, and you can see there’s a deep cavity underneath.”
The area has since been fenced off, ready for repair works.
