  • Alleged Footpath Along the Old Railway Line from Melton Mowbray Country Park to Scalford
    D DEVELOPMENT CONTROL AND REGULATORY BOARD - 16TH OCTOBER 2003 PROPOSED DEFINITIVE MAP MODIFICATION ORDER - ALLEGED FOOTPATH ALONG THE OLD RAILWAY LINE FROM MELTON MOWBRAY COUNTRY PARK TO SCALFORD REPORT OF THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE PART A PURPOSE 1. The purpose of this report is to seek the Board’s approval of the above-mentioned proposal. Recommendation 2. It is recommended that an Order be made under the provisions of Section 53 of the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981, the effect of which will be to add a footpath along the old railway line from Melton Mowbray Country Park to Scalford to the Definitive Map of Public Rights of Way, as shown on the plan attached to this report. Reason for Recommendation 3. That the statutory criteria in Section 53 of the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981, have been met by user evidence which shows that the footpath exists and should therefore be added to the Definitive Map. Circulation under Sensitive Issues Procedure 4. Mr. J.B. Rhodes CC Dr. M. O'Callaghan CC Officer to Contact 5. Mr. Gary Jackson, Chief Executive’s Department, Tel 0116 2656159. PART B Background 6. An application has been received from The Ramblers Association to add a footpath to the Definitive Map, as shown on the plan attached to this report. 7. The route of the alleged footpath from Melton Mowbray to Scalford was originally the route of the old railway line. Passenger trains stopped using the track in 1962 and later freight trains stopped using the track in 1964. Finally the track bed was taken up in 1966 and it is alleged that people have been using the route on foot since then.

Its sections are: Instructions for Using the Toolkit Economic Development Context The Emerging National Framework for Planning and Development The assessment of planning applications for rural economic development: designated sites and key issues for Leicestershire authorities What makes a good rural economic development planning proposal? Case Studies Parish Broadband Speeds The Distribution and Contribution of Rural Estates within Leicestershire Attractions in Leicester and Leicestershire Instructions - Using the Toolkit The toolkit is in the form of an interactive PDF document.

You are also asked to select 'traffic lights' – red, amber or green. It is important to understand that, if you start with a blank copy of the toolkit, the first thing you should do is save it with a different name using the 'Save as Copy' command in Acrobat Reader. This means you have now created a version of the toolkit for the particular project you are working on, and still have the blank copy of the toolkit for another time. Let's assume you have saved your copy of the PDF file as 'Project.pdf' – every time you save again you will save all of the additions and traffic light choices you have made.
