Crash at the top of Henton on the 2nd March, I heard the crash, it was horrific! Ambulance, Fire Engine's and Ambulance were in attendance, not more than a couple of days after the horse was hit.

Thank you for your report and please accept our sincere apologies for the delay in response. It's understood that it can be challenging for equestrians when they need to negotiate busier roads to link between other off road routes and it may be that landowners could be approached locally to provide either permissive or dedicated field edge routes. If this section of road is still of a concern it maybe that your Parish Council may also decide that this is a priority for their area and are willing to help by making enquiries with local landowners to develop a solution? We would be confident our countryside access team would be willing to assist if a landowner was willing to dedicate any new off road route.
