Rights of way are public paths. They criss-cross the UK, from town centres to remote countryside, providing great opportunities for everyone to get out and enjoy a walk, cycle or horse ride. There are four types of path and you can use different paths for different activities. They are signposted from the roadside, with markers along the route. You should always keep to the marked route. The different types of path and how to spot them: Activity Look out for Footpaths - marked with yellow Bridleways - marked with blue Restricted byways - marked with burgundy Byways - marked with red When you’re out you might also see waymarks for a particular circular walk or long distance route e.g. Trent Valley Way. 4 On a right of way you can: • Take a pram, pushchair or wheelchair, although this can be difficult if the surface is uneven or muddy. • Walk dogs on a lead or under close control (see over). • Take a short route around an illegal obstruction (e.g. fences, rubble and crops) or move it to get past. Surfaces Paths come in all shapes and sizes and may be uneven or muddy. Always wear the right footwear and clothing for the conditions. Fences, gates and stiles Fences, gates and stiles must be in good condition, easy to open and unlocked. If you come across a stile or gate on a path that is broken, locked or blocked, please let us know. Ploughing and cropping Many paths go across or around fields that contain crops or have been ploughed. If you find a path that’s ploughed over or covered in crops, please let us know. Please report any problems with a right of way in the county to us (see back page for contact details). 5 Open access • Open access land Areas of open access are special places where you can wander away from the path, explore, have picnics or play games. This special land is for walkers only – but you can cycle or ride across it if you’re following a bridleway. For more information on open access in Nottinghamshire, including where to find it, visit www.nottinghamshire.gov.uk/openaccessland Walking the dog You may take your dog on any right of way but they must be under close control or on a lead. This is particularly important on paths which cross fields containing livestock. It is an offence to allow a dog to be at large in a field or enclosure where there are sheep. A farmer has the right to shoot a dog that is attacking or chasing livestock. • Always put your dog on its lead when crossing fields containing livestock. • Please remember to clean up after your dog, or you may be liable for a fine. 6 When out walking, always follow the country code • Be safe – plan ahead. • Leave gates and property as you find them. • Protect plants and animals, take your litter home. • Keep dogs under close control. • Consider other people. Public transport Each of these walks can be reached by using public transport, an environmentally friendly way to start and finish your walk. If you are planning a walk using public transport always bear in mind the time of buses and trains. For timetables and route information for buses and trains, ring Traveline on 0871 200 2233 or visit www.traveline.info The countryside and rights of way network are constantly changing – woodland may be planted, grass fields ploughed up or footpaths diverted. Nottinghamshire County Council is also replacing stiles with gates for easier access wherever possible. Therefore you may find some changes to the paths as described. While every attempt is made to ensure that the routes are clearly described, easily followed and signed on the ground, Nottinghamshire County Council cannot accept responsibility for any omissions or errors arising from this publication. We would like to thank everybody who contributed towards this booklet. 7 Route 1 1 Trowell’s Trails Take a wander through the nature trail along the Erewash Canal as well as the Transportation links of past and present.

  • Step out April 2019
    Step Out April Issue, 2019 STAFFORDSHIRE AREA RAMBLERS The Ramblers’ Association is a registered charity (number 1093577) and a company limited by guarantee registered in England and Wales (number 4458492). The opinions expressed in Stepout are not necessarily the official views of the Ramblers, Area or National, but those of the authors concerned Photo – Autumn colours in an Urban environment CONTENTS Editorial 3 Obituary Don Evitts 3 Why Ramblers 4 Trent Valley extension in Staffordshire 6 Don’t Lose Your Way 7 Ramblers Funding 12 Photographs on Group Walks and GDPR 13 Cannock Chase ANOB Management Plan 14 Ramblers Insight Hub 15 Blocked Path…What can you do 16 Chair’s Report 17 Group Reports South Staffs Footpath Report 18 Biddulph 19 Mid Staffs 20 Sandwell 21 Stone 22 Wolverhampton 23 2 Editorial. Welcome to the Spring edition of Stepout. A subject that keeps cropping up at meetings is the question of what the Ramblers does for us. It’s a bit like the Life of Brian sketch ‘what did the Romans do for us?’ In this edition I will attempt to give an answer to that question. I know that many of us do realise the importance of the Ramblers so I apologise to those in advance. Sadly last year our past Chairman, Graham Rothery passed away. He became Area Countryside Secretary in January 2007 but later in 2008 he became Area Chairman, a position he held until November 2011. He was the MD of Pace Print, who produce Stepout for us. Walking was a great part of his life and in addition to his involvement with the Ramblers he was Chairman of the Heart of England Way Association.

    Issue No. 10 February to April 2015 Welcome to the tenth edition of the Newark and Southwell Deanery Newsletter. Dear All, Very soon the identity of our next Diocesan Bishop will be announced. As I write this article, Bishops Tony Porter and Richard Inward continue to head the leadership team along with our Archdeacons Sarah Clarke and David Picken and of course all the folks at Jubilee House. In January in our Deanery, we were formally able to welcome Rev. Greg Price as he took up his role within the Tuxford group of churches. Following his licencing there was an opportunity for all present to share time together and also, as part of the buffet, a hog roast. I’m very grateful for all the hard work done by wardens and others in preparing so thoughtfully for the day. On Colin Wall’s departure from the group Curate Carole Dunk has provided excellent support which I know has been appreciated. It is also a time for farewells as we say goodbye to Revds. Alison and Richard Seymour-Whiteley. Based in Farnsfield, Richard has led the Northern Lights Group. Alison has held a post at Ranby Prison for some time; she has also been a great support, taking services in vacant parishes throughout the deanery. Thank you both — you will be missed. The Deanery Newsletter Put plainly Richard and Alison’s departure to Southern Ireland means the loss of two This is your newsletter. deployable priests, leaving us with 22 vacant parishes and three vacant posts.
