FOOTPATH 1,19,2 LECK PARISH DIVERSION ORDER 2026
On 20 October 2026 the Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority confirmed the above order made under Section 119 of the Highways Act 1980. The effect of the order as confirmed will divert the section of public footpath at Crow Trees Farm, Leck, that runs from grid reference SD 6415 7667 (point A on the order map) on public footpath 1,19,2 in a north westerly direction to SD 6407 7676 at point F (total length: 125 metres), so as to run, instead, from point A at SD 6415 7667 on public footpath 1,19,2 in a generally northerly direction for 21 metres to point B at SD 6414 7669. Here, the definitive width of the footpath widens to 3 metres to take account of a camber, for a distance of 22 metres, in a north north westerly direction to point C at SD 6413 7671. From here the route proceeds in a north north westerly direction for 39 metres to a new hand gate at point D at SD 6411 7674. The route continues in a north north westerly direction for 38 metres to point E at SD 6409 7677, where it then bears south west for 25 metres to point F at SD 6407 7676 on public footpath 1,19,2 (total length 145 metres) as shown on the order map.
All distances are approximate. A copy of the order and order map can be viewed at the National Park Office, Yoredale, Bainbridge during normal office hours until 10 December 2026, or on our website using the following link www.yorkshiredales.org.uk/path-orders. Alternatively, please email info@yorkshiredales.org.uk or telephone 0196 965 2376 to arrange for copies to be sent to you free of charge. The order comes into force on the date of confirmation of this order, but if a person aggrieved by the order wants to question its validity, or that of any provision contained in it, on the ground that it is not within the powers of the Highways Act 1980, as amended, or on the ground that any requirement of the Act, as amended, or of any regulation made under the Act has not been complied with in relation to the order, he or she may, under paragraph 2 of Schedule 2 to the Act as applied by paragraph 5 of Schedule 6 to the Act, within 6 weeks from 29 October 2026, make an application to the High Court.
