And of course tennant farmer =/= landowner in many circumstances And although most tennant farmers/landowners are incredibly helpful and open in alllowing access, there's always the odd one or so that won't allow anything.

rf_fozzy Sep 2020 6:01pm, 24 Sep 2020 11,693 posts	Quote Pin rf_fozzy Littondale is much nicer.
flanker Sep 2020 6:03pm, 24 Sep 2020 19,445 posts	Quote Pin flanker NE that's the plan. Depending on how you go up you can get a nice variety from hands-on-knees to runable.
