minus-squareKorhaka@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·12 天前I know, this is why I said England rather than UK. Not sure on Wales/NI. Either way, not really a practical option to get there.
minus-squareAux@feddit.uklinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up8·12 天前England has limited right to roam plus public right of way. This effectively means that most land is accessible one way or another.
minus-squareKorhaka@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·11 天前The vast majority of land isn’t open access though. Most woodlands and fields are privately owned and you are not allowed to walk through them.
minus-squareAux@feddit.uklinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·11 天前We have public right of way, so you can definitely walk through them.
minus-squareKorhaka@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·11 天前Only if there is a public footpath through it. Otherwise you are trespassing if you don’t have the land owners permission

minus-squareKorhaka@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·edit-211 天前You would typically walk around the edge of it, but you don’t have permission to do that either and we don’t have the right to roam here. Also not all land is agricultural fields, pasture and woodland for example.
