Footpath not properly signposted or maintained
Reported via desktop in the Path/Way doesn't match map category anonymously at 15:31, Mon 18 August 2025 using FixMyStreet Pro

Olive Hill Farm
The footpath is not being properly signposted or clearly identifiable or maintained. There is a new pedestrian gate which is sometimes locked and those wishing to use the path are often challenged.
Signage is badly needed to show the route , the lock to the gate access should be removed. There should be a sign on the gate or at the gate.The point at which the path departs from the drive should be signposted and the path itself should be made clear across the grass until it rejoins the drive at the top of the hill which again needs signposting for pedestrians coming down the hill. It is important that the path remains usable.
