Landowner statements, highways statements and highways declarations
How long the statement is valid
The deposit of a landowner statement does not stop a new period of use starting, therefore if use 'as of right' of the land were to continue, a new 20 year period could begin to grow.
However, if a further landowner statement is deposited within 20 years of the previous deposit, it will again stop recreational users of the land reaching the 20 years' qualifying use.
What 'as of right' means
'As of right' means without permission, without force and without secrecy.
