How to use the Open Access Definitive map
The maps stored here are the original draft
provisional and conclusive (definitive) maps that were issued when
CCW went through the consultation process as a result of the
Countryside and Rights Of Way Act 2000.
Using the map
These maps are all static image maps, which means that you can’t
interact with them as you can with the ‘Countryside Access’ maps.
Each consultation area is made up of a set of maps, which can be
viewed in closer detail for the purposes of Solicitors land
searches for instance.
Choosing a consultation area
You can do this by either clicking on the map or on one of the A
to O options on the bottom left of the screen.
About the General Information page

maps here and the three stages that we went through to produce the
conclusive (definitive) maps
Click on the overview map of Wales in the
bottom left hand corner to discover how to change consultation area
or go back to the original ‘All Wales’ map.

How do I find the right map for my chosen consultation
area?
Click on either the draft, provisional or
conclusive buttons
You will see an outline map for your chosen consultation area
and type of map. You can also swap between the draft, provisional
and conclusive versions of the consultation area map.
How do I view the maps themselves?
Click with your mouse on one of the yellow box squares that form
the consultation area. A new page will be displayed with a ‘zoomed
in’ section of the map made up of nine squares for the area of land
that you have chosen to view.
Moving the maps around
Click on the orange arrows with your mouse to move up, down,
left or right to see areas of the map outside of your chosen
area.
Is there a closer view of my map?
Use your mouse again to click on any of the nine yellow box
squares and see a more detailed view of that particular square.
Can I print the map?
Our OS copyright licence only allows you to make a paper copy of
the map image showing on the screen
How do I go back to my starting place?
