Public footpath (HFF Everyone) (1 x note)

Public footpath (HFF Everyone) (1 x note)
HFF 27/5/2022

*In England and Wales a public footpath is a path on which the public have a legally protected right to travel on foot. In some areas public footpaths form a dense network of short paths. It is probable that most footpaths in the countryside are hundreds of years old. The majority of footpaths are shown on Ordnance Survey 1:25,000 and 1:50,000 maps.

In the picture above the public footpath starts on the other side of the gate, passing over land forming part of a farm.

It looks so inviting Doug. Lots of the lovely wooden signs around the country. They make a good photo on their own. I often find that the walk is longer than indicated on them. I don't know who measures their miles ;-))

HFF and a good weekend,
Rosa.

Doug Shepherd club has replied to Rosalyn Hilborne club
Thanks very much Rosa, glad you like it. Most signs here don't have the distance you have to consult the OS map! This is a nice walk through woodland mainly following a dale to the small village of Sawdon about 3.5 km away.

All the best, Doug

I like all the shades of green and the superb composition, Doug,
An unusual place for the start of a footpath, but the image does encourage investigation around the bend,
HFF and a great weekend.
23 months ago.
Doug Shepherd club has replied to Roger (Grisly) club
Thanks very much Roger, glad you like it.

This my be a rerouted path Roger. There is another route which is not a public, way but which is a more natural route to take down the dale to the eventual end at the village of Sawdon about 3.5 km away. The two routes merge about halfway.

All the best, Doug

OK
but how do I get there? Jumping over the fence? ;)
23 months ago.
Doug Shepherd club has replied to Marta Wojtkowska club
No need for such excessive effort Marta. You can either unlatch the gate, or use the stile (hidden by tree branches) on the right of the gate to get on the path;-))

Thanks very your visit Marta,

All the best Doug

So if I understand correctly, you were standing on the private section of the footpath. HFF Doug.
23 months ago.
Doug Shepherd club has replied to Christa1004 club
Thanks very much Christa. The area on this side of the gate is in fact a country road and is public. The track on the other side of the gate is the public footpath. All other land on the other side of the gate, the field to the right for example, is private. The public are only allowed to use the public footpath, they are not allowed to enter the field. Hope this explains everything.

All the best, Doug

Beautifully captured Doug. It looks like an attractive place to walk, protected from direct sunlight by the overhanging trees. I love the contrast betwwen light and shade and the lush greens. Super composition. Love it.

These paths are known here as cattle trails. They are very old and the right of the pedestrian prevails over the gates and fences where there is always an access to the effect. Your image is wonderful , Doug.
23 months ago.
Doug Shepherd club has replied to Anton Cruz Carro club
Thanks for your visit, kind comment, and interesting information Anton. Here in the British Isles we have something similar called Drovers' roads. They also are very old dating back to at least medieval times. They were used to move cattle and other livestock between fields or to market many kilometres away. For example from the west coast of Scotland to markets in southern Scotland near Glasgow. Some of the routes they followed were later to become the route of modern roads. Others are now the route of public paths or public bridleways, much used by hikers in the hills and mountains of these islands.

Enjoy the week ahead, Doug
