As far as the established opponenets of laning or concerned, you're right.
However I was thinking more of the general public perception - those
who don't know the ins and outs of the laning situation, and whose
views on almost everything are the ones given to them by the press -
remember when people thought that suzuki's fell over everytime they
went round a corner...mind you, come to think of it..... ;-)
Its an established fact that anything that gets wide public interest but
in reality affects only a small minority of the electorate is fair game for
any publicity seeking politician to stick his 2p worth into - most often
with an unwelcome result fot the minority group involved. Its happen(ing/ed)
with bull bars, and it could oh so easily happen with laning. That was
my concern.

I see your point here, however - in Scotland at least - the first and second
issues are closely linked. Because the statutory aspects of laning don't
really exist north of the border, it would be incredibly easy to destroy
laning up here. Have one case which removed a right of way, then use
that as a stated case for all others, and in a matter of months
they're gone....
> The question then becomes : well WTF are we going to do about it?
And its a good question - I'm certainly not against some form of direct
action - providing the same condition as you specified existed. However,
I personally am always going to be a loser. As a commercial 4x4 centre
operator, both leisure laners and landowners tend to misinterpret my
interest as being based on fiscal grounds. (Its not - I don't use lanes
commercially, and wouldn't ever unless there was some method of
contributing to their upkeep which didn't find its way into the central
government coffers)

Probably, but you'll understand that if some louts in a 4x4 or on a bike
rip a surface up and scare other users of a lane, it does affect our
position....if only with regard to the "undecided/uninformed" public
who read about it in their local paper or on TV.

It certainly wasn't my intention to suggest that "unaffiliated users"
- if that term covers anyone whose not in a club or organisation of
any type, but who operates on their own or with friends - are any less
lane friendly than club members. Indeed I belong to only one club
(Scottish Off Road Club). They don't lane - but then few in Scotland
do. One of the clubs who does "Green Road Runs" uses private roads
and takes 50+ vehicles on trips over them. They are very keen to find
and use the public routes to do their runs on. IF they did so in the same
manner as they use the private roads and I quote "we couldn't
gaurantee that we'd be able to keep the numbers down, it depends
on how many turned up, if five came then fine, if fifty come then they'll
still want to drive the lane". Then there would be problems.
So...it is never my intention to support the "if you want to lane you'll
have to join our club" lobby. Whilst there is some fantastic work done
by the various clubs and groups concerned with laning, it's as wrong
to limit use of the lane to their members and supporters as it is to
prevent vehicular use without legitimate and legal reasons.

Of course we wouldn't, you're quite correct here. The point with laning
tho' is that the activity wouldn't recover after a year or two. The lanes
would have been downgraded by then, and lost forever. That's my
concern...that any damage done for short term benefits will have a
long term or permanent affect.
Owen.

I've just been thrust into the job of ROW "Officer" for the White Rose 4x4 Club, a small but keen band based in the heart of rural North Yorkshire. The reason for this is simple: I know more than most other members. Unfortunately, I do not know nearly enough, so you can expect many cries of "help" from me. Ours is a big county, and as we are a small club we have decided to concentrate on The Yorkshire Dales National Park area, where we do most of our laning anyway. 1st question: Anybody else on this list involved with YDNP or NYCC ? (So I can compare notes). 2nd question: Can someone remind me what the full meaning of an RT road is ? 3rd question: My latest run-in with NYCC involves their refusal to let us repair a seriously damaged UCR. Highways Maintenance sent me a letter stating ".... initial findings have not confirmed any vehicular status". And yet the last time I took a look at their own maps the road was a UCR. Is this just the right hand not talking to the left ?

That's not an option, I'm afraid. I'm born and bred in Nidderdale, as are my parents, and theirs. I would never consider living outside the county (unless you give me a flight to the Maldives).

Land Charges Dept Director of Environmental Services North Yorkshire County Council County Hall Northallerton DL7 8AH 26/02/97 Dear Sirs NATIONAL GREEN LANE DAY As you may be aware, Sunday 23rd March is National Green Lane Day, and on this day four wheel drive enthusiasts countrywide will be actively engaged in voluntary repair and clearing work on byways and unsurfaced roads. This work benefits all users including walkers, horse riders, mountain bikers, trail riders, and four wheel drive owners. White Rose 4x4 Club seek your assistance by allowing us to make voluntary repairs to the track leading from Arkleside in Coverdale to Scar House reservoir in Upper Nidderdale, at a point just to the south of the parish boundary, and close to map reference 045781. At this point a short section of the track has sunk into what is now a steep sided and waterlogged hole, and this has rendered the road impassable, especially in view of the boggy nature of the surrounding terrain. We propose to repair this hole with stone and rubble infill, and to return the road surface to a useable condition. An early reply to this letter would be appreciated as we need time to organise the working party. Any assistance you can give us with regard to materials would be especially welcome. Yours faithfully Peter D Bradley --------------------------------------------------------------------- Dear Mr Bradley NATIONAL GREEN LANE DAY - 23 MARCH Thank you for your letter dated 26 February offering to repair part of green lane ref SN503G at map reference SE 045781. This section of green lane is just outside the boundary of the Yorkshire Dales National Park which researches and administers green lanes within the Park on behalf of the Environment Services Committee. The route leads from Arkleside in Coverdale to Ramsgill in Nidderdale. The Yorkshire Dales National Park has not yet completed research on the status of the way but initial findings have not confirmed any vehicular status. The County Council maintains the general stance that in the absence of conclusive evidence to the contrary, unmade green lanes do not have public vehicular rights over them. In the circumstances I regret that your offer of assistance with repair cannot be accepted. I have spoken to Mrs Parker of the Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority at Grassington who may well be able to take up your offer of assistance to maintain green lanes elsewhere in the Park where vehicular rights have been established and the routes reclassified as Byways open to all traffic. Yours sincerely A W Burns Maintenance Manager Copy to No.1 Div Engineer No.6 Div Engineer Yorks Dales Nat Park Officer, Grassington ------------------------------------------------------------------ WHITE ROSE 4 X 4 CLUB c/o Peter D Bradley etc... Mr A W Burns - Maintenance Manager Director of Environmental Services North Yorkshire County Council County Hall Northallerton DL7 8AH 07/03/97 Dear Mr Burns NATIONAL GREEN LANE DAY Thank you for your letter dated 6th March. It is disappointing to learn that you are unable to accept our offer of voluntary repair. Only last weekend I was talking to some walkers on green lane SN503G, whilst surveying the damaged section in question. They were amazed and delighted to find that individuals were prepared to put their own time and effort into maintaining old roads. National Green Lane Day is co-ordinated nationwide by the All Wheel Drive Club, with whom I am in close contact. It is my intention to report back to the A.W.D.C. with your reply to our request, and you should be aware that this may attract adverse publicity to N.Y.C.C., as it has done in the past, in both the national press and four wheel drive specific magazines. Your second and third paragraphs are of particular concern to me. I read with horror and disbelief your comment "initial findings have not confirmed any vehicular status." On my last visit to County Hall, admittedly a couple of years ago, this lane was clearly marked on the definitive map as a UCR. The old road is visible disappearing into Scar House reservoir at Lodge, and reappearing at the other side. There is a right of access over the dam dated 1933. The road is known to have been used by packhorse trains, indeed Lodge was an inn at one time, and it is only reasonable to assume that it would have supported wheeled vehicles. I have driven this lane personally for many years, the full length and in both directions, as has Mr. P. Smart of Rainton and Mr. N. Heward of Harrogate. At no time have I been challenged with regard to my vehicular right of way, either on the track or crossing Scar House dam. Yours faithfully Peter D Bradley ------------------------------------------------------------------- CLUB USE:- ----------------------------------- Green Lanes in the Yorkshire Dales National Park I have spoken today at some length with a Mrs. Parker of the Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority at Grassington. Basically, all reclassification of lanes within the N.P. is being handled by Mrs. Parker, therefore she is a fairly key figure. Correspondence should be addressed to :- Mrs. Parker Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority Colvend Hebden Road Grassington Skipton BD23 5LB Her telephone number is:- 01756 752748 I am informed that although "the file is open" on many green lanes, only three have so far been reclassified, all three as byways. These three lanes are:- Gilbert Lane / High Lane from Causeway Moss to Stalling Busk (commonly known as "Stake Pass"). Cam High Road from Howgate Head to the junction of the Bainbridge-Countersett road. Busk Lane from Carperley Green to the junction with the Stake Pass. I am told that they are to be "repaired", especially Cam High Road, possibly in June or July, and that assistance with repairs will be accepted. The chap responsible for repairs is called Ray Lonsdale and he operates from the Grassington office. Reclassification is going to be painfully slow, but one thing that Mrs Parker said which is in our favour is that ALL EVIDENCE would be considered, without bias, including evidence of use. My suggestion that users should write to her directly, as evidence, was well received. Until a lane is reclassified the current status remains, so the message to users of green lanes in the Dales N.P. is clear: Drive the lanes which you know currently have vehicular right of way, take some pictures, then write to Mrs.P at the above address telling her that you have been doing this for years. Be nice to her, we need her as an ally. White Rose 4x4 Club will write offering our services, on any weekend to help with repairs, with assistance in seeking historical and user evidence, and with a firm promise of voluntary restraint where necessary. If Mrs.P is to be believed, and with luck, we'll keep most of the lanes as byways. The situation outside of the N.P. is less clear.

Mrs. Parker Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority Colvend Hebden Road Grassington Skipton BD23 5LB 10/03/97 Dear Mrs Parker GREEN LANES IN THE YORKSHIRE DALES NATIONAL PARK It was both pleasant and informative speaking to you last Friday, with regard to the modification of status of green lanes within the Park. I would like to confirm that the club which I represent is more than happy to assist and co-operate with the National Park Authority wherever possible, especially with help in repairing damaged lanes. We have some highly capable vehicles in our stable and if necessary these can be fitted with our own low ground pressure "Treadlite" tyres which leave almost no impression even on the softest land. I am sure that we could have volunteers and suitable vehicles available on any weekend, with a little advance notice. We also offer our services with regard to gathering historical data and user evidence. White Rose 4x4 Club members frequently use the Dales lanes, both inside and outside the Park, and many have a good knowledge of the history of these lanes. I must stress that we are all responsible off-road drivers, keen to preserve the lanes as they are, along with the surrounding countryside. We use green lanes as a leisurely way for the whole family to enjoy the Dales scenery, not as some mud-plugging challenge for which we would happily pay to hire private land. We will willingly adhere to any reasonable request for voluntary restraint. You may also recall my mentioning one particular route which has been driven and enjoyed for many years by myself, Mr. P. Smart of Rainton, and many other folk of our acquaintance. This route, part of which is inside the Park and part outside, runs from Middlesmoor as In Moor Lane, across Scar House Dam as a right of access, and over to Arkleside in Coverdale as part of Carle Fell Road. Last week I informed N.Y.C.C. Highways Maintenance Dept that a short section of this lane, at approximately SE 045781, had become so badly damaged as to render the route impassable. I offered the services of White Rose 4x4 Club in order to effect a repair but was refused on the grounds that "initial findings have not confirmed any vehicular status". This concerns me greatly, and is in direct conflict with my own research regarding this lane and others in the area. Indeed, on my last visit to County Hall, the section from Scar House to Arkleside was clearly marked on the map as a UCR. I would be extremely grateful if you would keep me informed as to any developments regarding the reclassification of this route.

Wadkins Rights of Way Department North Yorkshire County Council County Hall Northallerton DL7 8AH 11/03/97 Dear Mr Wadkins MIDDLESMOOR, NIDDERDALE - ARKLESIDE, COVERDALE VIA SCAR HOUSE RESERVOIR About four years ago I visited your office to check the legality of driving the above route by Land Rover. I remember spending an interesting half hour looking at the relevant Definitive Map, and digesting the helpful and informative comments you made with regard to access across the dam, and the track known as "Dale Edge". Based on the information gathered I marked up my 1:25000 scale maps as follows: In Moor Lane - Middlesmoor to Scar House - R.T. status road. Scar House Dam - Right of Access from green lane only - circa 1933. Carle Fell Road - Scar House to Arkleside - U.C.R. Since then I have driven this route many times indeed, and at no time have I been challenged with regard to my vehicular right of way. I recently sent a letter to Highways Maintenance, Environmental Services, bringing to their attention a damaged section of this route at SE 045781. I was rather surprised, to say the least, when I read their reply which included the comment "The Yorkshire Dales National Park has not yet completed research on the status of the way but initial findings have not confirmed any vehicular status". I wonder if you would be kind enough to advise me as to whether the information I have listed above is still accurate ? If not, I would very much appreciate your correcting it. Many thanks.
