This is the way:

What we'd like is a simple pedestrian gate to the left of the main one so that we can go about our walk
without further impediment. |

A second view over the river:
Sheep in a field and under a tree, a church in the distance |

Hoorah! After representations to the press and County Council, we now have a stile
we can cross by. It isn't quite to regulations, but it's a great improvement. |

A good kissing gate:
Turning off the path at Wasperton, this one is easier to negotiate. |
