Rules of the British countryside

6. Know the difference between the uses of the paths. A footpath is for feet, but only human and dog ones. Horses are not allowed on these paths as they are a hazard for smaller, slower users. If a horse rider is using a footpath, the walker should step aside for safety and report them to the local parish council. Horses are allowed to use bridlepaths or bridleways and if walkers are using these kinds of paths they should take care to keep out of the way of large animals that may be travelling at quick speeds. Byways are for vehicles so extra care must be taken if walkers use them. (Courtesy photo by Gina Randall) http://www.defra.gov.uk/rural/
