Go on google maps zoom out and look for large green areas then follow the map to them - then go explore them, it saves a bit of petrol driving round looking.

its strange this post came up, because i was thinking the same thing.There are plent of public walks about as been said . But if you got working dogs terriers or lurchers as most on here have, it can be a feckin pain walking them in these public places . You either got keep the dogs on lead say for 2-3 hours, llike the other pet walkers do. And prob like most on here we all like to loose the dogs for mooch, maybe knock the odd rabbit out, if we all honest . And if you just walk across any fields (that will sombodys ground) they will soon tell you feck off lol. No mate its not easy (unless you got ground) and most have not . Now ive had some ground for 20 years (58 acres) , never been many rabbits on there, you could lamp it in 15 mins. But what is good about it they have sheep on there, which is good for stock training pups .Now the land owner is a old lady, who i get on well with i always drop a bottle of sherry Xmas. The tenant famer is a twat of a bloke, he (dont) like lurchers full stop. He put new sheep on sunday, and said to me i dont want you to come on here no more in the night, as the sheep scatter about, which is bolloxs . I had good think about it all, and i am(not) going to talk to the old lady about. Its not worth the shit from the that wanker, so will just go in the daytime. But the point i am getting at is, lurchers are not liked by most farmers, and since ive had lurchers 25 years its not changed. So mate you right its not easy to walk working any where today .
