Footpath creation


Crich Footpath 42 at Whatstandwell station

Crich Footpath 42 at Whatstandwell station


From the minutes of the meeting of Crich Parish Council May 1895 ‘the acceptance of Revd Acraman’s offer of four feet of land across his field to provide a footpath to Whatstandwell Station and the best thanks of this Council.., to be given to Mr. Acraman for his generous gift to the Parish’.

As an ex parish council clerk I’m not surprised that the project was rather protracted, but they didn’t give up and today we can still use Crich footpath 42 from Crich Carr to Whatstandwell station. Read the full story at http://www.crichparish.co.uk/webpages/footbridge.html
