Responses in 2011
The LAF supports all of the proposed upgrades from Permissive to dedicated ROW and would particularly like to thank the National Trust and the other landowners involved with this project for their generosity. Date: 18 January 2011.
- Creation of Bridleways at Seacross Lonning Embleton. The LAF supports this bridleway creation order but would recommend that the park uses this as an opportunity to resolve the maintenance issues on this right of way. Specifically this issue of overhanging trees and the problems this causes users on horses. Date;18 January 2011
- Creation of public footpath 513051, West of Beckside, Parish of Crook. The LAF supports the proposal. Date: 5 January 2011.
- Proposed Diversion of footpath 249010 Bridge House, St Johns Castlerigg, Whythburn. The LAF supports the proposal. A number of members visited the location with one expressing concerns over the structure and location of the proposed bridge but none that would preclude our support. Date: 3 January 2011
