    www.gov.uk/englandcoastpath Proposed changes to the England Coast Path between Sheepway Lane and Portbury Wharf Natural England’s Variation Report to the Secretary of State Coastal Access Variation Report VR8 March 2021 Part 1: Purpose of this report 1.1 Natural England has a statutory duty under the Marine and Coastal Access Act 2009 to improve access to the English coast. The duty is in two parts: one relating to securing a long-distance walking route around the coast; the other to creating an associated “margin” of land for the public to enjoy, either in conjunction with their access along the route line, or otherwise. 1.2 On 9 July 2020 the Secretary of State approved Natural England’s proposals relating to Avonmouth Bridge to Portishead Marina which formed part of our proposals for the Aust to Brean Down stretch. Whilst the proposals have been approved, Natural England and North Somerset Council are currently working to prepare the trail for public use and as such the coastal access rights for this stretch have yet to commence. 1.3 Since the approval of the report, it has become clear that a change is necessary to the route of the England Coast Path. This report contains Natural England’s proposals relating to that change between Sheepway Lane and Portury Wharf, which is at the location shown on the VR8 Variation Location Map below. 1.4 In order for this proposed change to come into force it must be approved by the Secretary of State. 1.5 The original stretch Overview provides vital context to the proposal set out in this Variation Report.
