Secretary of State

Secretary of State was originally the title given to the two officials who conducted the Royal Correspondence under Elizabeth I. Now it is the title held by some of the more important Government Ministers, for example the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs.

green lane

A public right of way open to all classes of traffic including motor vehicles but generally unsurfaced and used by the public for recreational purposes. Although not a legally recognised term, a Green Lane is a road that has never been tarmacced and as such is a valuable part of the nation's heritage.
