The Lake District National Park instructions to footpath surveyors

"Where there are two items of furniture for the same crossing (for

highest up the hierarchy .. or the one definitely on the definitive
line, that is the most important."
The gate is higher in their hierarchy than the stile, and thus would
normally be considered to be the one on the PROW where there is doubt
about the definitive line.

But that would mean, if the landowner wished to close or remove the
gate, there would be no official PROW access.
Could you clarify who these footpath surveyors are?
Do you have a link to this statement?
