Bulls Bushes Copse footpath restoration discussed at Parish Council

A resident who’d got in touch about footpath conditions in Bulls Bushes Copse came along to the Oakley and Deane Parish Council meeting to talk about it with councillors.

Following this, the Parish Council is now writing to the landowner to start a conversation and talk about restoration plans for the footpaths and rights of way affected by the logging work.

As I mentioned earlier, the woodland management plan review in 2027 is a good chance to continue these conversations. The parish council and community can work with the landowner on woodland management and public access.

This shows how community action, together with Parish Council support, can help us work with landowners to maintain public access and restore footpaths.
