• Walker's rights

  THE improvement in seating on Stinchcombe Hill is welcomed, and the areas around the edge do look well (Gazette, June 24). However, not all is rosy on the hill. Over the bulk of the hill, ie the area dominated by golfers, access remains a problem. Public bridleway CST47 remains obstructed on a daily basis near the clubhouse. Public footpath CST39 is almost impassable near Drakestone Point, whilst the coincident permissive ride to Drakestone Point is impassable on horseback. The permissive ride near the 11th tee is also impassable. Of course, all permissive rides remain unmarked. On other rights-of-way, the long grass has not been cut back so you can become sodden walking after rain or heavy dew. read more
