Irene Ryan has very kindly accepted the role of foot paths Officer in Middleton We are extremely pleased that Irene will be our new officer keeping an eye on the state of our rights of way. It is not an easy task as County Council resources have been cut to the bone, but with support fro Middleton Community we are sure Irene will do an excellent job.

Working woith land owners, resident and the Parish Council we are trying to move a current right of way that runs through a residents garden in Green lane 50 yards so that it continues in the field the other side of ramblers rest. The process is not simple and will take time. In the first instance what is called a permissive route is established (this will be where the actual route will eventually run) and we would ask all walkers to use this route, we acknowledge that legally you can still walk through the garden of the home owner concerned legally, however we are sure that the new route will afford a better experience for ramblers.
