DEFINITIVE MAP MODIFICATION ORDER 2024
The above Order, made on the 11 December 2024, if confirmed as made, will modify the Definitive Map and Statement of Public Rights of Way for the area, by recording a Restricted Byway as described below:
Restricted byway from an open junction with Aikengill Road in a generally east south easterly direction crossing an area of rough moorland grasses for a distance of approximately 20 metres before joining a compact but grassy track which then runs the full length of the route to the south of a lower lying feature known as Aikengill Dub through to the open junction with Ringstones Lane where it joins Slaidburn Road. The total length of the route is 0.30 km and the unenclosed width varies between 3 and 5 metres.

A copy of the Order and the Order Map may also be seen free of charge at the offices of Lancaster City Council, and at my offices from 9am to 5pm on weekdays. Copies of the order and map may be bought there at the price of £1.00. A free digital copy of the Order be requested by emailing
or by telephoning Ansar Sadiq on 01772 532435 between 9.00 and 17.00, Monday to Friday.
Any representations about, or objections to the Order may be sent in writing by email to
or by letter to Ansar Sadiq, Lancashire County Council, PO Box 100, County Hall, Preston, PR1 0LD (REF: LSG4/888.2218/AS002) not later than 3 April 2025 and applicants are requested to state the grounds on which they are made.
If no representations or objections are duly made to the Order, or if any so made are withdrawn, Lancashire County Council, instead of submitting the Order to the Secretary of State for the Environment, may itself confirm the Order.
