Locked gate and house owner actively discouraging right of way

Reported via desktop in the Gate is damaged/missing/locked category anonymously at 12:56, Thursday 18 January 2024 using FixMyStreet Pro

Sent to Gloucestershire County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 5460119.

As we were walking the right of way the owner came out of her house and said we were in her garden, and that the footpath went round the perimeter of her garden - I pointed out to her that both were a right of way. When we got to the other end of the path we found a padlock had been fitted to the gate and there was no stile.
