Decadal Review
The Forum is keen to hear from anyone who would like to help them in identifying anomalies with the conclusive map of open country and registered common land within Northumberland. Whilst, given the size of the task, we feel that the Conclusive Map produced by the Countryside Agency was a reasonable first attempt, we feel that errors and anomalies do exist.
Please use the attached form - the accompanying letter explains more about the Decadal Review. Please note - there is a blank page after the letter.
