The Path To Nowhere.

Is this a waste of public money?

The "path to nowhere" in West Hallam

Ramblers,Open Spaces,CPRE all support Council Spending on Public Footpaths.
They demand that councils spend time and money on public enquiries to find 'lost' footpaths
They are charities which ask for public contributions to support their demands.
Ramblers have just won a £250,000 grant, again generated from public spending from the Postcode Lottery. 

DERBYSHIRE County Council has been accused of building a "footpath to nowhere".
The path, which cost the taxpayer £20,000,has been built on Cat and Fiddle Lane, in West Hallam, and leads on to a field which doesn't have a visible path across it.
It's not unusual for rights-of-way leading across fields to be indistinct but, at the point where the new path enters, there is no footpath to move ahead on at all.
​People have also been indignant about the scale of what has been built.
