#  The Walks

[![Please Help Save The Walks](walksbtng.png)](http://www.thewalks.co.uk/ "WAG main site" ) For general background, please see
[TheWalks.co.uk](http://www.thewalks.co.uk/).

I maintain [a list of council and panel meetings](../bcklwn.txt).

[![Celebrating 800 Years](800years.jpg)](http://www.800years.com/?walks "Lynn 800 Years Details" ) I am mostly interested in the surveys done in 1998 and
2000, especially the reliability of the results and how they have been used to
justify the bid. For this, I am [repeating the 1998 survey](survey.html). If
you have a few minutes to fill it in, please do.

I will publish results and more here later.

I currently hold the following documents about this. Ones marked * can be
supplied on request. Others can be consulted at a mutually convenient meeting.
