Clifton Hampden Footpath No. 15 (part) - Confirmation of Modification Order 2024, ref. 03759

We have confirmed an order to legally record a public footpath in Clifton Hampden Parish.

Background

Public footpaths, bridleways, restricted byways and byways open to all traffic are recorded on Definitive Maps and Statements. These maps and statements provide conclusive legal evidence of the existence of public rights. Oxfordshire County Council is responsible for the Definitive Map and Statement for Oxfordshire and has a duty to amend them when evidence suggests that they are inaccurate or incomplete. Such amendments are made by Modification Orders made under section 53 of the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981. These Orders do not come into effect until confirmed. If there are no objections to the order, or if any made are withdrawn, the council may confirm the Order, and the Definitive Map and Statement will then be modified.
