Talk: Public Footpaths Survey by Ian Fleming
April 14, 2023 @ 2:30 pm - 5:00 pm
In April our speaker will be Ian Fleming who will give a talk about the Public Footpaths Survey he carried out in the Swanage area for local authorities
A report detailing all of Swanage’s 34 miles of public paths and bridleways has made far reaching recommendations to maintain and enhance the network, as well as suggesting giving right of way status to town centre cut throughs.
The document, commissioned by Swanage Town Council, has been completed ahead of the 2026 deadline when all rights of way must be registered on its county’s Definitive Map to maintain their status. Pathways not formally recorded as a footpath, bridleway or restricted byway, risk being legally ‘lost’.
