On a bridleway near me, to cross the same fence line, there's a horse stile that's also a gate (was tagged gate, I've changed to horse_stile as the gate is locked and of interest mainly to the landowner). I've seen these called stepover gates; they're to keep out motorbikes. Next to it is a

There are no relations set for that stretch or the adjacent ones, so I'll try to sort that out for at least that bit of NCR45.  It's definitely signposted (including the need to dismount) Chris On 13/12/2020 19:55, Mateusz Konieczny via Talk-GB wrote: Dec 13, 2020, 20:52 by

NCR45 in Stroud goes down a rather steep flight of steps to cross Dudbridge Road. I can confirm that is what the signs say, having been there yesterday.  Also the Sustrans/OS map shows it taking the line of the steps https://osmaps.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/51.73875,-2.23631,18 There is a narrow
