Dataset containing the public rights of way of Blackburn with Darwen

As documented on this web page, the council of Blackburn with Darwen have provided Adam Snape with an ESRI shape file that contains the details of their public rights of way. The ESRI shape file seems to have been created on 14th May 2018. The council points out that the data "is a working representation of the definitive map and is supplied on the understanding that errors and omissions are accepted".

An authority's Definitive Map is the authoritative source of their rights of way. The details of the public rights of way network contained in an authority's data are for information only, and are an interpretation of the Definitive Map, not the Definitive Map itself, and should not be relied on for determining the position or alignment of any public right of way. For legal purposes, an authority's data does not replace their Definitive Map. And changes may have been made to the Definitive Map that are not included in their data. The authority's data contains Ordnance Survey data © Crown copyright and database right 2024. Attempting to view this data with more detail than 1:10000 may produce an inaccurate rendering of the route of a public right of way.

This web page indicates that the ESRI shape file is made available by the council of Blackburn with Darwen under the terms of the Open Government Licence. So it's possible for you to use this data provided you give the attribution that the data has been provided by the council of Blackburn with Darwen.

Please e-mail me if you see a web page where the authority of Blackburn with Darwen allows you to download the ESRI shape file.

This web site also provides data about the rights of way of Blackburn with Darwen in KML format, in GPX format, in CSV format and in GeoJSON format.
