Path Closures

Notice of Having Made Closure Order Wootton Ridge and Plan

The closure is to allow for Forestry Commission felling and will remain in place until the work is completed.  Paths will only be physically closed when necessary and at these times, will be signed on the ground along with alternative routes (where available) by the Forestry Commission.

Notice of Making Closure Order DU1-4 and Plan

No alternative route available.

No access to Countisbury from Sillery beach. The path from Sillery sands to Countisbury Hill is totally impassable. The steps have been washed away by the sea and a large part of the path has slipped in a landslide. If you proceed along the beach eastwards from Lynmouth, please be aware of the tide as you can be cut off. There is no other exit from the beach, beyond the end of the promenade.  You must retrace your steps, before the tide comes in.

Porlock Shingle Ridge is impassable due to the breach. Do not attempt to cross, even at low water. Follow local signs from Bossington to Porlock Weir.
