Polygon dataset showing all approved stretches of the England Coast Path Coastal Margin. The Coastal Margin is being created by Natural England under the Marine and Coastal Access Act 2009. All land within the 'coastal margin' (where it already exists) is associated with the 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.
