Herefordshire Council has responded to the wishes of residents and helped to set up a safer walking route from Wellington Heath to Ledbury town centre. Under the council’s Rights of Way Improvement Plan, various path users and local residents are able to have their say on how they think the rights of way network in Herefordshire can be improved.
By one of the newly-installed gates are, from left, Hugh Ransome-Williams (Parish Councillor), Patrick Adams (chairman of the Parish Council), Phil Martin (member of the Wellington Heath village walking group), John Harrisson (Parish Councillor), Richard Willcox (Parish Footpath Officer), Tim Thompson (Herefordshire Council’s area warden) and Richard Hurley (vice-chairman of the Parish Council). Tim Thompson, Herefordshire Council’s area warden worked with Wellington Heath parish councillors Richard Wilcox, Patrick Adams, Fanny Underhill and Alan Woods to create a safer walking route by upgrading an existing right of way. Councillor Patrick Adams, chairman of Wellington Heath Parish Council) and some of the parish councillors look at the new bridge installed on the footpath with Tim Thompson (Herefordshire Council’s area warden) and Richard Willcox (Parish footpath officer). “The gates are marvellous and the bridge has made it far easier to use the footpath which offers a far more pleasant and less dangerous route into town than having to walk alongside the main road,” he added.
