A gate was padlocked on a public footpath which meant 4 pensioners having to climb over it. Dangerous but no option!
Sent to Gloucestershire County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 5432946.
Per the photograph there is a very clear right of way per the OS app but the gate was padlocked with fences either side so there was no option but to clamber over the gate. We walked it on 26th December 2023.
