The presentation covers the origins of our Rights of Way Network and focuses on the fact that in 2026 all unrecorded ancient public rights of access along old lanes may be extinguished unless a member of the public has identified them and made an application to the council supported by evidence from old maps and documents.  This talk should enable you to join the band of volunteers trying to preserve the old horse and cart and droving network of the area.
