776 756 Highways and Byways

She has reported back that the kissing gate is not broken and in good working order, however, the bridge over Lappingford Brook going towards Worminghall is definitely in need of repair as it is breaking in the middle. Which Parish would be responsible for this? BK thinks the owners of Court Farm, Worminghall own the field on the Ickford Side and suspect Mr Boyles owns the one on the other side. Do we pass this back to Worminghall PC?
