Permissive Paths

Permissive routes may be shown by waymarks with white arrows, but not always

• Permissive routes can be used by permission of the landowner. They are the responsibility of the landowner to maintain.
• Routes with permissive rights may or may not be signed accordingly.
• Permissive routes have no legal status and the landowner can remove the permission at any time.
• Permissive rights may exist over a public right of way. i.e permission for horse riders to use a footpath.
• The County Council is not responsible for permissive routes.
