Dataset containing the public rights of way of Kent

The council of Kent has provided me with zip file that has an ESRI shape file that has the details of their public rights of way. The ESRI shape file was created on 9th January 2024.

The Council also provides information about public rights of way on its online map. It may be that their map uses more up-to-date information.

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.

In their reply, the Council also provide a PDF file that says the data is made available under the Open Government Licence v3.0. It also says "We ask that the user of the data acknowledges that this information contains OS derived data using the attribution statement: ‘Contains OS data © Crown copyright and database rights 2024’."

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

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