Save our historic rights of way

We've searched all of England and Wales and found over 49,000 miles of paths that could be lost forever.

The UK Government recently announced it would be implementing a deadline of 2031 to save the 41,000 miles of lost paths in England. After that date we will no longer be able to claim rights of way in England based on historic evidence.

This means that any paths that are not legally recorded, and which have been historically used as a right of way, could be at risk of being lost forever.

Time is running out to save these paths for future generations. Help us save these lost paths before it is too late
