Myself and a long time resident of Wormshill recently met Michele Snoding, KCC’s Footpaths officer regarding footpaths around the village. It was a useful meeting and she is now in contact with those where footpaths run over their land with the intention of keeping stiles and gates in good repair.
She mentioned that there is a website where problems can be reported. It is as follows:
http://www.kent.gov.uk/waste-planning-and-land/public-rights-of-way/report-a-problem-on-a-right-of-way
Worth bearing in mind if you don’t otherwise know who to speak to. There are some great paths locally to get a bit of exercise and see the countryside.
