to my knowledge, a public right away, can not be undone, doesnt matter if it passes through a farmers field, back garden, council yard, if it existed at least 15 years prior to planning permission, it cant be rebuked and an alternative path must be installed by law,

Another of your walks I tried today. Can’t imagine how isolated a wrecked sailor must’ve felt in poor weather running aground there!

Yes, it is a bleak place, especially in a storm. Even today with Porthcawl nearby it still feels remote.

Really informative and beautiful camera work. Seems somewhat timeless, but perhaps it’s because I didn’t see a car for 10 minutes. New to this channel and becoming fascinated with Wales, you’ve got a new subscriber from Maryland USA

Thank you Marcus,really enjoy watching your videos.Walked the Nottage circular route with my 3 boys on Easter Sunday (someone had left 2 Dairy Milk Easter eggs at St.David's Well) and viewed your video at different stages on the way! Construction /keep out warning signs still there I am afraid.Quite busy along this route today.Watched about 10 people enjoying the sunshine on the patio at Sker House.I purchased a dvd recently of the history of Sker House (it also shows footage of the restoration back in 1999) from the appliance shop opposite Isabella's in town for just £5.Thanks again Marcus,take care,David.

The public footpath now runs around the holiday park, it's segregated by fencing. When it crosses The Grove Golf Club, it's not well signposted but is reasonably clear. I use it often, despite the occasional quizzical look from the golfers as I disappear into the trees.

The house did look spooky in the old ruined state. Apparently, the colour is what it would have looked like back in the 16th/17th century.
