What happens when a Section 15 enactment ceases to have effect?
Where pre-CROW rights on s15 land are brought to an end (for example, by the termination of an access agreement, or by revocation of a deed of dedication under section 193(2) of the Law of Property Act 1925), then, provided such land appears on a conclusive map as open country or registered common land, the right of access under CROW will apply to it automatically. Natural England updates its s15 data to reflect changes to the records.
