Up the old garden path


Do you know of any footpaths that somehow do not get where they are going? There are some footpaths that mysteriously vanish, or end at a farmyard or field gate.

If so, it might be a lost way'. This is a path that our ancestors used, but someone has managed to get blocked off when it reached their property.

There is to be a process of looking at these paths and, by using old documents or asking older people, find out whether a path has in someway been forgotten.

If you know of an example, please contact me by email at nigel.agar@hertscc.gov.uk or write to me at 34 Oakfield Avenue, Hitchin, SG4 9JB. Alternatively, contact The Hertfordshire and North Middlesex Ramblers Association through their website: www.ramblers-herts-northmiddlesex.org.uk Councillor Nigel Agar, Ramblers Association president and Labour county councillor for Letchworth North
