Footpaths and Bridleways
These descriptive notes and maps show the footpaths and bridleways in Newick and are designed to help those who like walking in open country but fear they may be trespassing, since many paths are not easy to follow. Signs show where paths leave the public highways.

Newick Rootz is a volunteer group working under the guidance of ESCC and supported by Newick Parish Council. The group is actively engaged in maintaining and improving public footpaths and bridleways in Newick Parish; we also look at tree planting for posterity. We repair and replace stiles and kissing gates, clear vegetation, erect fingerposts and install way-marking signs; and we enjoy ourselves whilst doing it!
