​

Keeping footpaths and bridleways open...

The Parish Council is conducting a survey of all the footpaths and  bridleways in the parish to ensure that  these are kept open and are easy of  access.

​

If you know of any paths which are obstructed by brambles, overgrown  hedges, overhanging trees or any other  obstacles, please inform the Clerk.  

Ordnance Survey grid references are most helpful in locating the trouble spots, but any detailed description of  the exact location(s) will be welcome.
