Those at the Annual Update last week in the excellent session by Steve Jenkinson of @TheKennelClubUK will appreciate the wording of this sign!(zoom in) #DesiredOutcome

An inspired solution for dogs crossing stiles on #RightsOfWay

30 years of the Rights of Way Act 1990 which strengthened the law against illegal ploughing and cropping of public paths bit.ly/3iUwKZ7 @ramblersgb @EdwardLeighMP @IPROW1 @Agri_becca @BritishHorse
Now there’s a neat solution where equality of access is needed!
Ah, where’s the #RightsOfWay budget, anyone seen it?!
Can Centrewire knock one up for a fiver?
Greetings again @LakesStiles from the Peak District. Now here is the real deal! A revolving kissing gate on the path to @ChatsworthHouse from Baslow. Can the Lake District match that? 😉

Somewhere on this route teapawt.net/thejrogers/status/1271…
Good news - schedule changed, time to investigate. Bad news - I'm not too sure. We walked: Merriott - Tail Mill - Middle Chinnock - West Chinnock - Chiselborough - Wigborough Manor - Merriott. Mainly on River Parrett and Liberty Trails & Monarch's Way. Possibly North Down Farm?🍏

A benefit of leaving cross field footpaths and bridleways uncultivated? 🤔

Fascinating for any historical map lover — what did it mean, what was it for?

We like to think current signs in #RightsOfWay are more clear 🤔. The “ordinary traffic of the district” is a nice touch!

We've got used to clear bold road signs designed to communicate important information quickly. Love this early weight limit sign for a bridge.

So you want to vary or revoke a public path order? Sounds just the job for correcting unfortunate errors in the original order — but how does it work, and is there really such a thing as a public path variation order? pannageman.craddocks.co.uk/2…
ALT Whitley Willows Mill, the site of one of very few orders varying a previous public path diversion order.

There's now a 'reasonable excuse' for visiting any 'public open space' (SI 2020/350 am. by 2020/500, r.6(2)(ba)). It's defined to include <any> 'mountain, moor, heath, down, cliff or foreshore', woodland, river or lake, whether accessible or not. Sadly, not a defence to trespass.

"The true footpath is not planned and dug, but is something which has happened over the centuries as generations of feet have agreed this was the best way of getting to wherever it was they were bound for. It was feet that chose and made the route." ~C.R.Milne #WednesdayWisdom
Footpaths, bridleways, byways or other public access and outdoor pigs? 👇
If you own #Pigs & have footpaths on your land there is a risk walkers could feed your pigs, increasing the risk of animal diseases like #AfricanSwineFever. To protect your pigs contact @AHDB_Pork for a free ‘please do not feed the pigs’ sign. #PigKeepers forms.ahdbdigital.org.uk/ahd…
