Bridleway EE422 at Sutton Definitive Map Modification Order 2025

Kent County Council has received an application, and subsequently made an Order, to amend the legal record of Public Rights of Way, known as the Definitive Map, by upgrading Public Footpath EE422 (and part of EE423A) at Sutton to Bridleway status.

Under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981, the County Council may make an Order to modify the Definitive Map where it is considered that a route shown at a particular status ought to be shown at a different status. The Order will only take effect if it is confirmed; making and advertising the Order provides an opportunity for objections and representations to be made.

UPDATE 07/08/2025: The Order has now been confirmed and has taken legal effect. A copy of the confirmed Order may be found in the Documents section.
