SINTON GREEN, NEAR HALLOW, WORCESTER
An extremely pleasant place for walkers. (If you do not mind the obstructions.)

Stile at Sinton Green.
This rotten stile at Sinton Green, SO 818 601 Nr. Hallow, is fastened to a rotten tree, a dangerous place. A good point, the waymarkers are still visible.

I have reported this at least three times, must be falling on deaf ears.
Quote, The Ramblers Association.
(The owner of a dangerous stile or gate may be committing an offence under the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974.)
Landowners have a duty under section 146 of the Highways Act 1980 to maintain any stile across a footpath or bridleway in a safe condition and to the standard of repair required to prevent unreasonable interference  with the rights of users. This duty applies unless there is a specific agreement or condition to the contrary e.g. under section 66(3) or 147 of the Highways Act 1980. Quote.

This path leads to the locked gate on to main road. (picture below.)

This locked and chained gate at SO818 602 has a gap at side to get through, (if you are extremely slim built)
I think the landowners at Sinton Green have something against the walker.

Another Footpath Problem at Worlds End, Sinton Green.
This path at SO815 599 is 200 to 250 yds long. It is situated at Worlds End near Sinton Green Hallow. Accessing is diffucult due to narrowing by addition of fence. When hedge grows, path will become impassible.
Something tells me Sinton Green walkers are easily pleased.

Yet Another High Bar at Sinton Green.

Yet another high bar at Mosely, nr. Hallow.

Missing handrail here at Grimley.

(Could this be an old Worcestershire custom?)
Must be some very tall people in Sinton Green, or a group of very inconsiderate landowners. Note the waymarker is still in place at SO 812 601,
