  • MANY residents enjoy a walk along the farm track in Kemble from Top Farm towards Kemble Wick. There is a public footpath so this is their absolute entitlement. However, the farm has reported that unauthorised vehicles are also using the track which is causing problems. It is intended to prevent this by installing an automatic gate over the next few weeks. A gap will be left to allow continuing access for walkers. The public footpath proceeds straight towards Kemble Wick. Access is not permitted on the right turn towards Rendalls Barn.
