14 Dec 09 - Bridleway saved in Northaw!

We're delighted to report that the order to record Hook Lane in Northaw received no objections and so will be confirmed by the County Council. This path was recorded thanks to historical evidence provided by the Patchetts Green Bridleways Trust and the BHS, and with user evidence collected by the North Mymms Riding Club. The County Council processed this application quickly because of the value to riders of the link. We refer to the route as "saved" because routes like this one that are not recorded on the definitive map of rights of way by 1 Jan 2026 are extinguished by virtue of the Countryside and Rights of Way Act 2000.

More details, including photographs, can be found on the Patchetts Green Bridleways Trust's site.

Forthcoming Event: 21 Feb 10, BHS TREC

For those of you who enjoy Trec, there is a competition at Brook Farm, Stapleford Abbots in Essex on 21st February. This is run by Jill Perry who taught our very successful training sessions this Autumn. All the proceeds go to charity so do go along and have fun supporting some good causes. Details and schedule in the "events diary" section.

Forthcoming Events: Evening lectures at the Royal Veterinary College at 7:00pm for 7:30pm; runs until 9pm. Refreshments from 7pm.
