    Extract from lecture: Introduction to National Trails Part 1: their origins in the UK Dave McGlade Hadrian’s Wall Path National Trail Officer 6th September 2015 Origins in UK: Report of National Parks Committee 1931 (Addison report) In discussing the South Downs: “There would be provided a 70 mile walk along a green ridgeway, through typical English country, with convenient halts and camping sites at regular intervals” (Is this the first documented proposal for a long-distance route in UK?) Source: Daily Telegraph 23rd April 2005 Origins in UK: Report of the Committee on Land Utilisation in Rural Areas 1942 (Scott report) “The principle that the countryside is the heritage of all involves the corollary that there must be facility of access for all” “The recognition of such schemes for main hikers’ highways as the proposed Pennine Way” “The re-opening of the old coastguard path as a right of way for walkers round the whole coastline of England and Wales” Origins in UK: National Parks in England and Wales (Dower report, 1945) “A first main installment of decisions (which should include schemes for the Pennine Way and other long- distance walking routes referred to in the Scott report) should be reached and put into execution as soon as possible”. (p38) Origins in UK: Report of the National Parks Committee 1947 (Hobhouse) “We also attach importance to the provision of long distance paths and bridleways in and between National Parks and Conservation Areas. There should be continuous routes which will enable walkers and riders to travel the length and breadth of the Parks, moving as little as possible on the motor roads.

    THE ROUND HILL REPORTER June 2018 The (Shorter) Round Hill Reporter Issue 72 June 2018 Special ‘Recycle Better, Recycle More’ supplement inside Eighteen down and just one to go. Here is the last mature elm on the Upper Lewes Road. It is soon to be felled because it has a bad case of fungal rot which threatens its stability. Therefore the Council believes it must remove the tree rather than face the risk of taking financial responsibility if it falls and damages nearby property. Over the last 30 years 18 tall elms have been felled along this road and just one replacement planted. Given the increasing recognition of the health benefits of living with trees – for removing pollution such as particulates, oxides of nitrogen and carbon monoxide as well as the emotional health benefits (hospital patients recover faster when they have a view of greenery) – perhaps we should be seeking more replacements? In addition trees cool the air in summer, provide nesting sites for birds and habitat for insects which feed those birds. There is even evidence that street trees tend to make traffic flow more slowly – which would be a real benefit on this busy road with just one crossing at the very eastern end.
