Thank you, Cornwall Council! We have brand new steps in our footpath in the little wood. Now it is safe, and we don't need to be afraid of slipping on a muddy slope. The old irregular stones are gone. The new steps have edges made of wood (they will rot eventually). They will not last like stone. People have rights to walk on the footpath. It is public, shown by a yellow way-marker (yellow arrow). The Council must look after 2,216 miles of public footpath. (That is 3,567 km.)  You can see some of them on the Council map, marked in purple. Many are not suitable for any wheels. There are also 415 miles of public bridleway (green on the map). These are suitable for horses and bikes as well as walkers and pushchairs.
