Residents of an ‘island’ village at the heart of West Lothian are appealing for a footpath to connect them with vital services in nearby areas.
Villagers in Stoneyburn have said they feel like they are living on an island, with the only path they can walk or cycle in safety taking them in a circle around the village.
And despite active work by community groups and the local community council villagers are still finding it difficult to find a safe walking route out of the village.
