Thanks for this tjj. The Ramblers do such a good job. Up here too in Scotland along with ScotWays - https://www.scotways.com
I remember tsc mentioned these folks awhile back as well - https://slowways.uk/

I feel we, the general pop, need these folk more than ever. Once something's gone, it's hard to get it back.

I love this site, don't know if there is similar one for England/Wales/Ireland? - http://heritagepaths.co.uk/

Is this the article? I'm anyway to read it now :-)

Guy Shrubsole's 'Who Owns England' is excellent as too is Andy Wightman's book 'The Poor Had No Lawyers'


Yes, Thelonious - your link to the interview with Guy Shrubsole is spot on. Thank you for taking the time to reply. Am still reading The Book of Trespass with my 'support bubble' friend sometimes over the phone. Today I learnt about a charming character called Nicholas Van Hoogstraten - 'a self-styled emissary of Beelzebub' to quote one of the judges he faced. He took on the Ramblers after building across a public Right of Way and lost ... eventually. Am pleased to say.
I will check out your other links too.
