This north-easterly facing photograph shows a field where the footpath has been marginalized by the introduction of a barbed wire fence. The result is a badly maintained, difficult to negotiate footpath, where the walker has not only to negotiate nettles and briers but also the barbs on the wire because they come perilously close at times. Walkers who are not as sure footed as they once were or families with children would do well to look carefully at this shameful route first before negotiating it.
