Date of council's decision

Outcome and reasons for the decision

The County Council decided to make an Order for the claimed route. An Order was made for a bridleway. A further decision was made on 22 May 1990 to make an Order for footpath status because the previous decision was deemed not to be supported by enough evidence. A further Order was made dated 19 June 1991.

Details of appeal to the Secretary of State

Both Orders received objections and will be submitted to the Secretary of State for determination. Objections to the Order were received and the Order has been submitted to the Secretary of State for determination.

A hearing was held at Great Gonerby Social Club on Tuesday 29 November 2016.

Date modification order made
22 November 1985
Confirmation,non confirmation (with,without mods)

The Secretary of State decided on 3 January 2017 not to confirm both Orders. The inspector considered that the documentary evidence was insufficient to demonstrate the existence of public rights. The evidence of use contained many inconsistencies and therefore not able to be given any significant weight and so not sufficient to raise a presumption of dedication of a public footpath.
