(The decision taken is detailed within the Scheme of Delegation in the Council’s Constitution.)

Reasons for the decision:

(a)  The available evidence shows, on balance, that the proposed right of way subsists or is reasonably alleged to subsist and that the currently recorded route from point A – point B was recorded in error.

 

(b)  The evidence shows, on balance, that the route claimed should be recorded as a footpath as described. Accordingly, in the absence of objections the Council can itself confirm the Order without submission to the Planning Inspectorate.
