A patch of land between Highlands Road and Winton Chase has caused tension among residents after disagreements over its use. The land, which runs in a strip between the two roads from London Road to the field at the top, has become the centre of a dispute over whether or not it should become a right of way. A fence was erected across a portion of the land, causing anger from those who believe it should be a footpath. While noting that it is not officially designated, one resident said there was a “very strong case to be made for this footpath to remain in public usage” and prevent it being “arbitrarily” closed off.
