Please note an application was registered on 16 June 2017 to delete Public Footpath 26 Frodsham from the Definitive Map and Statement of Public Rights of Way.
The footpath commences from Manley Road at OS grid reference SJ 5233 7639 and runs in a westerly direction along the drive to Warrenhouse and then in a northerly direction to terminate at the location of an old well at OS grid reference SJ 5220 7664.
The route is shown circled in red on plan M0563 (below).
The application submitted is supported by documents including a 1988 preliminary enquiry for the sale of land at Manley, a 1910 Ordnance Survey map and a statement from a witness.
Under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981, it is the evidence of whether the public rights were incorrectly recorded that is considered when making the decision on whether an Order should be made.
The desirability or suitability of the path would not be part of the decision.
It is intended that this application commences consultation 9 November 2017 and closes 9 February 2018.
If you have any comments or evidence please let the Public Rights of Way Officer know if you are not able to send your information within the deadline.
