Proposal to close footpath in Burton Leonard
A public footpath in Burton Leonard is set to be closed after an application by North Yorkshire County Council.
The authority argues the path — which is adjacent to Burton Leonard Church of England Primary School — is not needed for public use.
The village is situated between Ripon and Harrogate.
The 118m stretch of path runs north-east from public footpath 15.18/12 at Dolly Walk to emerge next to the primary school's western end, joining footpath 15.18/22.
If approved, the proposal would see public footpath 15.18/10 extinguished and the definitive map modified.
Comments about or objections to the proposed extinguishment order should be made by April 28 to Steve Metcalfe, North Yorkshire County Council, County Hall, Northallerton, North Yorkshire, DL7 8AD, stating the grounds for objection or support.
