Rights of way

Request land protection

A landowner can apply for a:

  • Highways statement or declaration to protect their land against public rights of way being established by public use.
  • Landowner statement to end any use of their land by local inhabitants for lawful sports and pastimes.   This may then protect against it being registered as a town or village green.

We charge a fee for the registration of an application.
