By 2026, 10,000 miles of undiscovered footpaths around Britain stand to be lost.
Hundreds of thousands of miles of paths reach into, and connect, communities across England and WalesBy 2026, 10,000 miles of undiscovered footpaths around Britain stand to be lostJack Cornish has dedicated the last five years of his life to walking these forgotten routesIt is Jack's hope that the result, his book The Lost Paths, will show just how special these forgotten rights of way are, and how embedded each path is in the history of Britain
Footpaths, tracks, country lanes and urban streets illuminate how our ancestors interacted with and shaped their landscapes in the pursuit of commerce, salvation, escape, war and leisurePaths are an often overlooked part of our everyday life and our country's history, crucial to understanding the cultural and environmental history of us in the landscape
After dedicating his time and energy to fighting for their survival, The Lost Paths is Jack's personal journey and exploration of the deep history of English and Welsh footwaysThis narrative history takes us through ancient forests, exposed mountainsides, urban back streets and coastal vistas to reveal how this millennia-old network was created and has been transformed
This is a celebration of an ancient network and a rallying cry to reclaim what has been lost and preserve it for future generations
Jack Cornish is Head of Paths at the Ramblers, Britain's largest walking charity, with over 100,000 membersIn 2017, he walked across the country from Land's End to John O'Groats and is ten years into a (probably futile) attempt to walk every street in London
Jack's book The Lost Paths: A History of How We Walk From Here To There will be available on the day
