  • This gate is now even worse and there is a drainage culvert visible so even negotiating in foot with horse in tow is challenging

  • We are about 45 weeks since this was first reported. It is getting more dangerous by the week.

  • Can you please tell us when this will be repaired? It is 51 weeks since the original report was made. Do we need a horse and rider to be injured trying to use this gate before action is taken?
