An ordinary old farmstead

Archive for December 12th, 2006

Public Footpath 60 enters the farm from Hearthstone and leaves it near Low Leas barns (or vice versa).

FP Plan

At the top end we upgraded the stile in 2007. We had already installed a dog gate and improved the outer steps down into the lane.

At the bottom end we built a new stile and dog gate in 2004.When we sold a small area of land in 2007 this was all rebuilt on the new line.

Derbyshire County Council offered to supply wicket gates for where the path crosses internal boundaries, but has not provided them so far!

Plenty of waymarking arrows have been put up along the route and we would ask you please to look out for them and not to confuse the footpath line with the various sheep tracks or with the wheel lines made by farm vehicles.This is a public footpath only:- no horses, bikes etc without permission. Dogs must be kept to the footpath and under close control. There is no public right of way on any of the farm tracks.
