Forest footpath, Detling, Kent. March 2017

[246th-fd-coy-re]

How paths can change, this isn't really the most exciting or military related thing but it just proves how a small change to a small space and short time frame can effect something, I have since living in my military home with my wife and kids explored a lot of countryside and local places near where we live. This one public footpath stood out to me today as I haven't walked down here for a while. But when I first moved here 3 years ago the footpath as directed is to the right in the overgrown shady part following the tree line (it use to be walkable and more like a footpath) as you can see its worn in like a path just unused. But over to the left slightly I assume because of peoples' want to not walk in mud or long grass, more have started to make a new path on the boundary of this farmers field. Which in turn could start to affect crops and rights of way. It doesn't sound much but patterns and paths are formed from routine and habit. So to know that people follow the crowd and not the proven route is a bit sore to see. I'm not one to preach about this sort of thing as I like many do cut paths and fields but to see how such a short time can affect something so visible is crazy to believe. This isn't a rant just a mear observation of the normality that is human existence to move things just because we can without consequence and no one really understands why. I suppose things may be better on the high ground or are they? I suppose as a solider I see the benefits to moving paths to make life easier and safer but then I see the age old argument of the proven route is the proven route don't deviate its time served and tested. (The paths may not be so obvious from the photo but walking this path you really see it end to end.) #osmaps @ordnancesurvey @42_engineer_regiment_geo @135geosqnre @britisharmygeologist @splashmaps @naturalengland #publicfootpath #rightofway #ubique #royalengineers https://www.instagram.com/p/CcfyqJ8tAl5/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

When ever I see a set of gates like this I know there's going to be something good behind them. The only problem is getting a view without trespassing, thank you Ordnance Survey for having a brilliant app that tells you where you can go. #ordanancesurvey #os #maps #exploring #publicfootpath #publicrightofway #house #mansion #estate #gates #wales #driveway #publicaccess #old #johnnash #design #architecture https://www.instagram.com/p/B20kNfMjLFW/?igshid=n42w4xmm7mcq
