Analysis and Conclusion:
The law of easements, as discussed in the provided sources, does not specify a particular difference in width between footpaths and cart tracks. Instead, it focuses on the existence of an easement of necessity based on the practical requirement of access. Any specific legal standards regarding width would typically derive from local regulations or planning laws, not the general easements statutes. Therefore, legally, the difference in width is not explicitly defined under the Law of Easements but is context-dependent and may vary based on local standards or customary usage.
