Risk assessment

We cross the B6374 twice, take care a busy road, but with good sight lines. If wet, the wooden stiles could be slippery. Also, if wet one short narrow path will be muddy, slipping hazard. Beware of tree roots and old brambles hidden in grassy verges, tripping hazard.

Several fields with sheep, so dogs on leads at all times please.
