National Trail
All land within the 'coastal margin' (where it already exists) is associated with the England Coast
Path (nationaltrail.co.uk/england-coast-path) and is by default access land, but in some areas it
contains land not subject to access rights – for example cropped land, buildings and their
curtilage, gardens and land subject to local restrictions including many areas of saltmarsh and
flat that are not suitable for public access. The coastal margin is often steep, unstable and not
readily accessible. Please take careful note of conditions and local signage on the ground.
The Scottish Outdoor Access Code is the reference point for responsible
behaviour, and can be obtained at outdooraccess-scotland.com or by phoning
your local Scottish Natural Heritage office.
