  • Mega-Footpath Problems

    Mega-Footpath Problems

    MEGA-FOOTPATH PROBLEMS Most of the Diversion and Modification Orders to PRoWs (DMMOs) published by the County Council are not contentious and therefore the Ramblers do not object to them. Sometimes a suggestion to the Modification Order is made by David Godfrey (Oxfordshire Area Footpath Officer) which leads to a better alternative route. However there are a number of major footpath issues currently affecting Public Rights of Way in the Vale of White Horse. They are listed below. 1. Marcham Mill – Bridge repairs - Closure of path since 2013 SU 457953 293/17 (Marcham). This has been closed for a number of years as the land-owner has refused to carry out repairs to the bridge which has become unsafe. He has also refused to allow the County County to erect a temporary bridge over the stream. The latest news from OCC is that representatives of the Land-owner are at last discussing technical issues with OCC staff. 2. Thames Trail – Obstruction at Oxford Boat Hire premises SP 444076 184/55 (Cumnor). Again a long standing problem. The footpath which runs alongside the site has been blocked by overhanding sterns of boats awaiting repairs. This forces walkers to walk through a working boatyard with attendant Health and Safety issues. 3. Sunningwell Quarry – Closure of path 372/8 at GR SP 498012 for many years. The high cost of the construction of a stairway to overcome quarry face has prevented OCC from implementing a project. Recently Sunningwell Parish Council paid for an initial feasibility study which shows how a new path could be provided to overcome the quarry face.

The Vale of White Horse District Council have adopted their Local Plan Part 1 for the period up to 2031. Part 2 of the Plan has an enormous impact on our Parish with the Vale seeking to remove all of Shippon from the Green Belt and planning to develop Dalton Barracks and the airfield to accommodate up to 4,000+ new homes. Taking the lead from the very strong views expressed at a public consultation we held in April last year, we will be opposing Part 2 of the Plan when it is considered by the planning inspector later this year.
