A parishioner contacted me last year about an unpleasant encounter a family member had with a shotgun toting man who claimed there was no public footpath in a field near the village. There is one, without doubt, but the markers had long since disappeared. Since then Graham (not his real name) has been working with Central Beds to get the marker posts installed and conspicuous. He reported to me this week that after chasing, action is now being take to instal them.
Public rights of way need to be defended, entrenched and argued about all the time. Landowners of course hope that we will just forget about them eventually. Persistence is the answer so well done Graham for keeping at it.
