Thanks for reporting this we are aware of the problem which is also taking place in many locations in this area and trying to arrange for the Police off road motor bikes to do regular patrols as it is is very difficult for us to control when we have to allow equestrian use. We will come back to you to discuss the matter further.

We will come back to you to discuss the matter further. Following recent discussions with the police and this current lock down the police have not really had any reported instances of this type of activity happening recently but do have plan to make regular patrols on their off road bike if and when this issue happens again. Please do come back to rights of way if this starts to begin again. Tel no. 01604 883400
