@cornish_jack @Right_2Roam @RamblersGB @nickhayesillus1 Thanks Jack – will report. The path had long gone: no signs or even any indication it had ever existed at the field edges (one a large, unbroken hedge, the other a locked gate), and no vestige of the route across. Common enough, as we all know.
@cornish_jack @Right_2Roam @RamblersGB @nickhayesillus1 Interestingly Google Street View clearly shows stiles at both ends, so the removal has been very purposeful, whether legitimate (seems unlikely) or otherwise. Now reported.
