Open Access - Other Statutory Access Land (CRoW Act)
Mynediad Agored – Tir Mynediad Statudol Arall
Other Statutory Access Land 2014.LYR
The CRoW Act provides for public access on foot to certain types of land, amends the law relating to public rights of way, increases measures for the management and protection for Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) and strengthens wildlife enforcement legislation, and provides for better management of Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). Under Section 4 of the CRoW Act it states the following: It shall be the duty of the Countryside Council for Wales (CCW now forms part of Natural Resources Wales (NRW)) to prepare, in respect of Wales, maps which together show; (a) all registered common land, and (b) all open country. This dataset contains all Common Land with a higher right of access (Urban Commons, Commons with Deeds for Access, 1899 Commons Act) for areas of Wales, and Elan Valley Estate. This dataset does not include the Registered Common Land dataset. Digitisation took place in 2014 for all Wales. When using this data for Open Access, it should be used in conjunction with Open Country, Registered Common Land and Public Forests from the same years. Contact your local authority for access to and information about Registers of Common Land.

This dataset is based on the original common land paper registers as held by the local authorities, and was originally digitised against OS Land-Line by Landmark Information Group (LIG) for NRW for Open Access mapping work. Any line shown as not matching the original boundary has been copied from what is shown on the original registers and is not a digitising error. This dataset is an update from the recent Open Access 10 year review, with Elan Valley Estate being added to this dataset in 2014. For the 10 year review, each Local Authority A was contacted for information on de-registered, new or change of use Commons, and updated Access data as appropriate.
