Section 16 of the Countryside and Rights of Way Act 2000 enables a person who holds an interest in land (being a freehold interest or a leasehold interest of which not less than 90 years remain unexpired) to dedicate that land as "access land" for the purposes of Part I of the Act. Dedicated land will be subject to the public right of access in the same way as if the land had been included in a map prepared by the Countryside Council for Wales under Part I of the Act and will be subject to the same general restrictions (set out in Schedule 2 to the Act), except to the extent that those who dedicate the land remove or relax those restrictions by the terms of the dedication.
