PRoW proposal

Comments

Proposer

1

Footpath from Cabbage Hill SANG to Hazelwood Lane ((Binfield BR24) crossing land owned by Thames Water.

 

Would make a direct walking route from north Bracknell to the network of PRoWs north of Bracknell.

Discussions with Thames Water have been ongoing since 2018.

2

Link from the end of Lower Church Road to Sandhurst FP19 at Horseshoe Lake.

Improved access to Horseshoe Lake from Sandhurst without having to walk along narrow Mill Lane

Richard Mosses

3

Diversion of Binfield FP11 along to the north of the Amen Corner development into Piglittle Fields.

Avoids footpath running through housing development.

Would also require corresponding change to STNH FP 251 (Wokingham) with which it connects.

4

Cross border connection from RBWM footpath 25 (which runs south from Shurlock Row) to Binfield Bridleway 22 (Spinning Wheel Lane) and another south to Billingbear Lane to connect with Restricted Byway Binfield 21.

Connects isolated parts of PRoW network in north Binfied avoiding the need for walking on busy, twisting roads.

Would require new paths private land.

From Warfield 3 from where it turns south to Church Lane to Malt Hill.

There is a concrete track along this route and access to Malt Hill is round the gate and is used by dog walkers.

There is a planning application for this route to be part of a SANG together with a car park on Malt Hill.

6

A link between Winkfield FP8 and Winkfield FP10 without having to walk along Braziers Lane. 

Avoids the need to walk along busy, narrow Braziers Lane.

Could either be improvement of verge or along the field edge which is just south of where Winkfield FP8 comes out onto Braziers Lane and then it would require a bridge just north of where it could join Winkfield FP10.

7

Access to Frost Folly SANG2 from Church Lane, Warfield (near jnc with Osbourne Lane.

Alternative pedestrian access nearer to housing developments

8

Add Horseshoe Lake Bridleway to definitive map.

Bridleway has been in place for some years but is not on the definitive map

Graham Pockett

9

Add diverted link through Ambarrow Hill/Court from rerouted railway crossing to definitive map.

Closure of Railway crossing on Sandhurst FP9 with diversion over railway bridge. New path to re-join original route should be a PRoW

Graham Pockett

10

Restoration of original path from old Garth Hill College site to Warfield Road.

This was part of a pre-New Town footpath that may have been extinguished by the Development Corporation

Alvin Finch

 

11

Add Mosses path adjacent to the football club in Binfield as a PRoW on the definitive map.

The land is owned by BFC.
