Chains across the path (Sustead FP 8), 4th November
Two chains, suspended across the path. Difficult to undo. In any case, why are they there, what purpose are they supposed to serve? In any case, there's no provision in law for chains to be authorised to be suspended across a highway, in this manner.

Is this a public right of way or private?, 19th August
It has been overgrown for many years and is a safer walking route between Sustead and Melton and would benefit the parish if it was cleared. If it is private I would like to approach the landowner to see if agreement could be obtained.

Broken Stile (Hanworth FP 2), 3rd May
Stile on path is in poor state of repair. See photographs. Stile apparently erected by the Norfolk County Council. Although a stile is recorded on the definitive map and statement, its substitution by a less restrictive option would secure a continuation of stile-free public paths here.

Illegal path diversion? (Sustead FP 10), 3rd May
Between the grid references TG 1967 3653 and TG 1971 3627 the path (as depicted on the Norfolk County Council map at http://maps.norfolk.gov.uk/highways ), both in terms of what is apparent on the ground and what has been signposted by the Norfolk County Council (as a "Norfolk Trail"), has effectively been diverted onto a completely different line running to the east.
The mapped (correct) path line is substantially obstructed.
The signposted diversion is itself subject to a stile in a poor state of repair (no limitations are recorded on the definitive line) and overhanging vegetation. The photographs all show the signposted diversion.
Message to Norfolk County Council: How has it come about that you, as the highway authority, have signposted the wrong path line? Why have you failed to signpost, and assert and protect, the correct line? What are you going to do to put things right here, and when?

Wooden rails across the path (Sustead FP 8), 3rd May
Wooden rails across the path, either end of footbridge. See photo. No limitation is recorded on the definitive map and statement. Is there any lawful authority for these obstacles to be present on the path? Any authorisation under Section 147 Highways Act 1980 would only be valid if the correct procedure had been followed (Section 320 Highways Act 1980). If not, then it is an unlawful obstruction, and its removal must be secured. The Norfolk County Council should not authorise a stile at this location.
