Chalvington
Path from Chalvington to Langtye Lane , BR Chalvington31,32. An unsuitable gate has suddenly appeared at Langtye Lane.
Too narrow at 1m17, and unsuitable latch.(Pleased to report this has been removed) At north end is a similar width gate also with an unsuitable latch which we have put up with for years but as he has repeated the mistake it is time to get it put right as well . Exiting the farmyard the BR has been diverted at right angles through a narrow pinch point, complete with ESCC direction signs! Was this authorised and if so why? To add insult to injury there is an ESCC notice asking riders to respect farmland. Will ESCC please point out to the farmer that he will get more respect from us if it is reciprocated!

1/6/2010 i was walking my dogs along this bridlepath on 1st June and am pleased to say the bridlegate at Langtye Lane has been totally removed. There is now a gap next to the main field gate.
R-o-W have emailed immediately: This does seem to be relatively new work which we were not aware of and have not approved. I have asked S to investigate the issues you have detailed and we will raise this with the landowner as necessary.
