Route 671 along the river from Kingswood weir has been closed by Worcestershire County Council Rights of Way, for a period of at least 6 months from end Feb 2014.  As previously reported severe erosion had caused difficult walking; now, sections of the path have completely disappeared.  Once subsidence has run its course (if ever) a new route might be possible.  Recommended diversion is along the Worcestershire Way that is further up the bank.
