You raise a good point though...anyone know how this will get fixed? I presume the Police would get in touch with landowner who would then - through the police incident number and my reg number - get my insurance company to sort it out? Anyone know if I need to do anything to help put it right?
the local farmer more than likeley would do it himself, failing that, i'm sure you will hear from them if he needs to get someone in to do it, why not contact him, ask if they can put a stile in while they are at it
