Over the autumn and winter months, despite some awful weather, we have continued to improve our network of footpaths across the parish, with a focus on helping to make more of our footpaths accessible for all.

The last year has been a busy one for the Friends of Limpsfield Common (FoLC) with work including changes to their information boards around the commons and ongoing upgrades to the car parks.
Following the launch of their Family Activity Trail last summer, the FoLC have been road-testing an easy access trail in the High Chart woods.
Please be aware that the railway crossing section of footpath 68 in Limpsfield, that runs from Grants Lane through the fields and out near Orchard Farm at Red Lane, will be closed until 30 November 2020 for repairs to the bridge.
Surrey County Council advise the use of the adjacent footpath 67 instead. This runs from Grants Lane just opposite Itchingwood Common Road to Red Lane.

We’re very happy to let you know that we have completed our work on Footpath 78, the public footpath that runs over the River Eden from Granville Road up to Detillens Lane, with several tonnes of aggregate having been laid.
Local walkers and runners will know that Footpath No. 75 at Whistler’s Bridge (where it crosses the M25) has now been the subject of a ‘Temporary Prohibition of Traffic Order*’ (closure to pedestrians) since May 22 this year, as the bridge was deemed unsafe for pedestrian traffic. The closure was due to expire on 15 November 2019.
If you’re a regular walker or rider around the Limpsfield / Titsey area you will probably have had to tiptoe around the edge of Pitchfont bridleway on numerous occasions, as in the winter months or after heavy rain, it turns into a mire at the end of the lane by Titsey Road.
