UNREGISTERED RIGHTS OF WAY – Can You Help?
Do you know of any unregistered rights of way (footpaths, ‘cut-throughs’, alleys or bridleways) in or around Crowborough? Following the introduction of The Deregulation Act 2015 there is now a cut-off date by which all such paths must be registered, or face being lost. In particular, this concerns any rights of way that existed pre-1949 and are therefore not on any council maps, or any more recent cut-throughs or ‘muddy paths’.
If you know of any such unregistered rights of way that you believe should be registered, please contact the Council Offices on (01892) 652907 or info@crowboroughtowncouncil.gov.uk , providing the location and any other details you may have. Thank you for your help!
PUBLIC NOTICE – MEMORIAL SAFETY TESTING
Please note that Crowborough Town Council’s ongoing safety programme involves the inspection of all memorials at:
HERNE ROAD CEMETERY
Commencing April 2020
Any memorial that has not met the health and safety requirements will be provided with a notice and temporary support. Additionally, a letter will be posted to the registered holder of the Exclusive Right of Burial for the grave, giving details of the action required by them to make the memorial safe.
For your own safety, and that of all visitors to the cemetery, DO NOT attempt to test memorials yourself. Any work to repair memorials must be undertaken by a qualified monumental mason.
ALL MEMORIALS REMAIN THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE OWNER TO KEEP IN GOOD SAFE ORDER
We appreciate your assistance and co-operation in ensuring this cemetery is a safe place for everyone to visit.
If you have any questions or concerns regarding a memorial, or this notice, please contact Crowborough Town Council on (01892) 652907 or cemeteries@crowboroughtowncouncil.gov.uk
