The bridleway by the South Town Field between Four Acres Corner and the Shepherd & Dog has been temporarily blocked. A load of sub-soil was tipped in the wrong place and is currently being cleared. Paul from Thatchly offers his apologies to any riders and walkers who have been inconvenienced and says that it will be sorted out very soon.
