How sad to lose our childhood right to roam - The Guardian

https://ift.tt/TrweGUp

Rosie Jewell’s article on Dartmoor and the right to roam poignantly struck a chord (As a child, I roamed Dartmoor – and it shaped me. But across England, that freedom is being trampled on, 19 March). Returning to my childhood village, I was horrified to not only see the millpond where we children used to swim barred to the public, but footpaths now fenced so walkers are corralled into single file.

As a youth in 1969, I attended a four-week Outward Bound course at Holne Park on the edge of Dartmoor. We spent nights on the moor under bivouac canvas – wild camping at its most basic. It was an unforgettable experience – no doubt shared by many over the 16 years from 1959 when there was an Outward Bound school at Holne Park.
