    Been there today
    Got very stuck in the Ford.
    Unfortunately I was informed by a local resident thst this is a bridal way not a green lane/byway so it's not legal to drive which I wasn't aware of until after of course. Will be posting to fb etc to make people aware

    I've changed it back to public as TW2 says it's an UCR and says it's a C-road maintainable at public expense.
    I think the resident was jealously guarding the lane.
    It was muddy when I attempted it a P38 but I've not been back in my Jimny to try.
