NT2816 : Track above the Hopehouse Burn
taken 4 years ago, near to Wardlaw, Scottish Borders, Scotland
Track above the Hopehouse Burn
I was hoping to get at a square to the west, but the trees and illegal obstruction lower down beat me. This track is blocked by a mesh gate (with non compliant sign) and awkward fence. There is an incorrect assumption that anyone using it will be passing close to the buildings at Thirlstanehope. It is easy to get around the obstruction by using the new forest road.
If your objective is the B709, then no problem; the new road is a very easy and unobstructed way down.(other than by more non compliant signage) way down. It emerges onto the road here
NT2916 : Forest road, Ettrick.
