Meeting: 30/09/2014 - Local Countryside Access Forum (Item 8)

Site Visits

Please bring ideas for future visits.

Minutes:

Graham Pockett was thanked for leading a site visit to Jennett’s Park where members got to see diverted Bracknell Footpath 15 and new footpath links, and visit Peacock Meadows and Tarman's Copse which were due to be transferred across to BFC ownership. The site visit was also combined with a visit to West Garden Copse and Wykery Copse, the latter being a SSSI woodland with managed access. Forum members were thanked for attending the site visit.

 

Suggested future site visits included a visit to Broadmoor/ Foresters Way and the impact of new hospital access road to the PROW network. Swinley Forest was another suggestion as there was a new pipeline being installed by south east water and Natural England were involved in relation to Newt management. John Deakin would be contacted at The Crown Estate to see if this was possible.
