Obtaining a new Public Right of Way
The East Cheshire Group has members who annually inspect footpaths which are Rights of Way to ensure that stiles and signposts are in good order and that obstructions on the path are removed. We also seek to claim new Rights of Way for paths which have been used by the public but not dedicated as Rights of Way.

Improvements to a path in Adlington
A small donation for materials has secured a major improvement to an Adlington path. The junction of Adlington Footpath 21 and Footpath 24, north of Whiteley Green, at the memorial signpost to Bill Shercliff was notoriously muddy. The East Cheshire Group of the Ramblers approached Adlington Estates and they very kindly offered to carry out the work if we supplied the materials. We arranged for six tons of broken-brick base material to be delivered to site and this was promptly spread and compacted. If only all landowners were as helpful and co-operative!
