Public Rights of Way Claim Pack

Under the provisions of the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981, a Modification Order may be applied for by any person who wishes the Definitive Map to be amended by either the addition, deletion, upgrading or downgrading of a route. These applications are commonly referred to as 'claims'. In addition, the Statement containing the particulars of a right of way may be varied. Claims can be based on usage [user evidence] and/or documentary evidence.
