ABSTRACT
The ward highway has a ra ther old-fashiored ring to it, ronjuring u p visions of Dick Turpin on Black Bess, galloping furiously 10 Vork.
In fact. highway is an aü-embracmg ward used to cover many different types of routes which may be used by the pu bli c in general, withour permission o r limitation. excepr perhaps as to the manner of use. Thus. a highway may be a road. footpath,. street, bridlepeth, meealled road or a mere track. But, it must be used by the public, as of right.
