    Is it possible to walk from Long Whittenham north on walking paths over the river, say at the weir, to Clifton Hampden without having to walk that road from LW to CH?

    • Tom Bowtell says:

      Hi Ross

      I’m afraid it’s not possible to do that, as there is no right of way onto the island by the weir that over connects over to the Thames Path.

      It is in the parish council’s long-term strategy to try and open up this route, but unfortunately we have no access at the moment.

      Hope this helps answer, even if it doesn’t help!
