Then, after they built their stone pavement on top of the heather, the footway builders decided to impede people from walking/running on the lovely little footpath running next to it. So they dumped a load of stones all over it:

It is this kind of behaviour that I find objectionable. What gives them the right to deliberately scatter stones over a footpath? And who asked them to lay down their stone slabs on the heather in the first place?
