'In 1996 the Linby and Papplewick parish paths partnership (P3) was created to maintain the footpaths and rights of way in the two parishes. Since then considerable work has been carried out - to upgrade the surface of the paths, provide stiles and waymarks, and to rebuild the ancient bridge over the River Leen.  Funding from Nottinghamshire County Council and the Countryside Agency was used for the work to be carried out.  Since 2010, all paths in Papplewick and Linby have been maintained directly by the County Council.'
