Along the Ock Valley Walk two trees currently block the path. It is possible to step over or round them.
The first picture shows a part of a willow from a private garden that has fallen across the River Ock and onto the path.
Further away from the town centre another willow has split in two across the path, on Vale of White Horse District Council land.
There are other trees that have fallen near or into the river along this stretch.
But none of the fallen trees are from the section maintained by the town council where there has been well controlled tree cutting and replanting over recent years. At times it has looked a bit over controlled but perhaps that is what willows need.
Too much wind in the willows.
Is the Ock valley walk a footpath or can you cycle on it as well? I was walking through there a few weeks ago and had to quickly get ot of the way of a determined older lady on a bicycle.
It is supposed to be a footpath!
well you don’t have to get out of the way – stand your ground and make them go around you.
i think it’s only fair that pedestrians take priority.
