As well as numerous stiles which my old knees struggle with, there were also unkept public footpaths which forced me to walk alongside the 70mph A38 with barely any path either side. Only to find, when I’d got across said main road, that the quarry had fenced off another section of public footpath. I couldn’t face retracing my steps so called Dirk to come and rescue me. A fine line was drawn today between ‘interesting’ and ‘terrifying’!
You’re not supposed to fence off public footpaths! We had one going through our old farm & the ramblers association used to come & check them to see if they were accessible & we had kept them in good nic, that was the old days!
Glad you had hubby to come to the rescue.
