Who is responsible
for stiles?
Stiles are the responsibility of the landowner.
Can a stile be repaired
or replaced?

offer a stile kit for them to install. If you wish to report a stile that
needs repairing please provide the relevant details by completing the
service request form.
Can the design of a stile
be changed if it is difficult to use?
The landowners will be requested to alter the stile if necessary. To make

The stile is difficult to
use - can it be replaced with a gate?
In certain circumstances, such as where animals are not present, replacing
stiles with gates will be considered in consultation with the landowner
concerned. To request this please provide details on the service
request form.
