Many thanks to all who replied. I am glad that most agree that paths should no need to be in play.
The paths are hardcore with a nasty sharp black gravel on the surface. That is until it washes away.
We even have parts of pathway with that rubber stuff with holes in that is in play.
Just be aware that, in order to be classed as an immovable obstruction, the roads/paths must be artificially surfaced. Packed down dirt or native soil does not qualify.
