If there is community interest, we can apply for funding from Paths For All to create solid, accessible paths across the farm, connecting with onward travel routes, allowing you to cut through the farm without getting muddy…
School pupils could go up the west side of the farm on a safe path parallel to Cramond Road South, instead of on the narrow pavement. Cramond residents could cut through the farm to go to the Toby Carvery for a meal, or to get to Cycle Route 1, or to the Lothian Bus routes at Silverknowes Parkway. Silverknowes and Muirhouse residents could cut through the farm to get to Cramond.

We could change this! But we need to know if you’d use it…
