| UK: Country/Region: [County for community circuits:] Path Name |
1
Brief description of path and length in both miles and km.
Include any notes about history, geology or other interesting facts about the area.
Picture (see right) of the waymarks or symbols used along the path.
Mention any key links here, for example at the ends of a
long distance path, or any promoted parking places. State any problems
that should be expected in using the route, like mud on the Ridgeway or the
elements on high paths.
2 If the route is not yet fully open and available for use, this section will describe the limitations. Otherwise, it will state 'Open' or 'Open and promoted'.

This section shows a thumbnail picture of the leaflet or book promoting the path. This could be
a local authority leaflet or a Countryside Agency book, or an On Horseback book.
Where it is possible to buy the book or leaflet online, clicking on the picture will take the reader to the point of purchase.
The text will describe how it can be bought by conventional means, giving
the name and address of the seller, the price (and a date at which
this is accurate) and perhaps a telephone number where the price
can be checked before ordering. Alternatively for free leaflets,
the text will invite the reader to send an SAE with the request.
4 For long distance routes, an outline map (like those on the Countryside Agency sites for national trails) gives the reader a general idea of where the route goes. It will not be good enough scale to actually use on the ground, of course, since people ought to get maps and leaflets to ensure they are following the right route!
5 This section lists the Explorer and Landranger map numbers that cover the route. Clicking on any of them will enable the reader to purchase the map on line.
6 This section allows anyone who advertises in Bed and Breakfast for Horses to be listed, so promoting this form of equestrin tourism, and assisting the rural ecoomy. If advertisers have their own web site, we can provide a link to it. Potential advertisers can find out more here.
7 This is for links to community circuits and anything else of interest.
8 We will list here other relevent web links that may be of use to the reader, including (as the site develops) the highway authority or other body responsible for keeping the path open.
9 Any acknowledgements stated on the route leaflet should be reproduced here. It is only right to give credit to all those involved in the creation of a route.
