New permissive bridleway for residents in Ickwell

Date Added: 13/07/2021

The local community in Ickwell is soon set to benefit from a new permissive bridleway, thanks to The Sutton Family and Shuttleworth Trust, who have who have allowed their land to be used for the creation of a new bridleway. The new bridleway will provide a safe linking route from an existing permissive bridleway to the broader rights of way network and will play an important role in linking up the network.

Work started in 2020, removing some of the trees, levelling the ground in the woodland and seeding the grass.  ‘Sand boxes’ were installed to deter motorcyclists from using the bridleway and work took place on the ‘field’ section of the bridleway to ensure a wide, useable surface was available.

The Permissive Path Agreement with the Council was signed by the landowners and tenant farmer in the Spring.

A small opening ceremony to mark the occasion was attended by:
• Cllr Frank Firth, Ward Member for Northill
• Jacqui Sutton, contributing landowner
• Neville Sutton, contributing landowner
• Amanda Done representing The Shuttleworth Trust, contributing landowner
• Stephen Home, agent for The Shuttleworth Trust
• Josie Maudlin, Peter Maudlin Community Trust, donator
• Ann Kennedy, representing The British Horse Society, donator
• Chris Dorow, Central Bedfordshire Council
