That no modification order be made for the alleged Public Footpaths in Alltwen and Rhos, named as:

1.              Pen yr Alltwen to Footpath No.39

3.              Footpath 39 to Footpath No.36 Community of Cilybebyll

Decision:

That no modification order be made for the alleged Public Footpaths in Alltwen and Rhos, named as:

1.           Pen yr Alltwen to Footpath No.39

2.           Bryn Llewellyn alongside Pen yr Alltwen to Footpath No. 36 

3.           Footpath 39 to Footpath No.36 Community of Cilybebyll

Reasons for Decision:

1.      The written evidence provides grounds for making a modification order under the test that it is “reasonable to allege a public path subsists” as set out in appendix 2. However only two people have stated that they wish to continue to support this application which is insufficient to justify making a modification order.

2.             In addition  to the lack of support set out above,  it is also possible this path was called into question in either 1993 or 1996 which if correct  would only leave one person who would claim to have used the path for the full 20 year period. 

3.             Only one person has said they are prepared to continue to support this alleged public path should this earlier period be found to represent the relevant period which again is insufficient to justify making a modification order.

Implementation of Decision:

The decision will be implemented after the three day call in period.

Consultation
