| 168023575 | 6 months ago | PROW 109072 still exists but access to the path leading to A689 bypass does not exist. Access to the field is by turning right at this point following the path until you reach access to the field on the left |
| 168023575 | 6 months ago | Reference: https://cumberland.highway-iams.uk/live/PBLC/PIP/?cg=Networks Find this location using the site and there is no path to be found as provided until this edit |
| 168023575 | 6 months ago | Access to the footpath which corresponds to PROW 109072 in Engine Lonning area no longer available. A big mound of dirt can be found with access blocked.
Checking Cumberland Highway IAMS site confirms no path here, the closest being existing PROW 109071 running along to A689 bypass in one direction, Engine Lonning the other. Historically, there appeared to be two access points to Engine Lonning coming from the west with this path being one of those access points. Today there appears to exist only one closest to the lake |

Discussions on Facebook confirm local concerns over legitimacy of the footpath being closed dated back to 2021 (ref: https://www.facebook.com/spottedcarlislenew/posts/the-footpath-cycle-path-leading-from-burgh-road-industrial-towards-the-river-ede/1829907340499487/).
A document concerning proposed modifications and inclusion of the footpath can be found here (ref: https://www.carlisle.gov.uk/Portals/0/Documents/PDF/PF10971%20Burgh%20Road.pdf?ver=hh9E90KPF_jcGcHr8Oh8Bg%3d%3d) however no correspondence can be found and seemingly no updates made to the public right of way/footpath map found here (ref: https://cumberland.highway-iams.uk/Live/PBLC/PIP/?cg=networks) |

Using Cumberland Council Highways map the diversion is confirmed and the PROW code for this is 132015 (ref: https://cumberland.highway-iams.uk/Live/PBLC/PIP/?cg=networks - use 'Houghton House Farm' in the address bar) |
