  7. Latest #Ramblers magazine has an item on the number of stiles on #PublicRightsOfWay in England and Wales. They used #FreedomofInformation requests, presumably from each Highway Authority, for the data. Grand total comes to around 140,000, or around 1 per mile of PRoW.

    #OpenStreetMap has just over 82,000 as of today (#OverpassTurbo query: overpass-turbo.eu/s/2cFH). Not all of these will be on public rights of way, but between 50 and 60% of the total isn't bad. (Wales only represents ~5-6%).

  12. Another Bridgend Ramblers walking making use of Pencoed Footpath 5 running from Hendre, south of the M4 to Woodlands Fields. Access was a bit of a challenge with two stiles not making things easy for walkers. #Ramblers #Access #RightsOfWay #Footpaths #Hendre #Pencoed #Walking #Wales #Cymru

    📖 Personal reflections on the wild places of the Peak District
    🌿 Evocative nature writing capturing the changing seasons

    The new 2025 edition from Peakrill Press includes:
    ✅ The original 1992 text in full 📖
    ✅ New reflections on what’s been gained—and what’s still at risk

  36. In England there is a law that says that if you don’t walk on country paths for a year, a farmer who owns that piece of land can close the path. Ramblers keep such paths open. They plan which paths they wish to cover every year, and they do so systematically. Usually, a local authority helps them by recording the paths and the ramblers’ walks and negotiating with farmers if any trouble should arise at any point.
