Clothall 27 bridleway starts at a step over horse stile and junction with Wallington Road and runs generally eastwards along the old road alignment to the side of the A505. It turns north-eastwards to end at a junction with Clothall 3 bridleway, which goes across the A505 on a bridge.

Clothall 28 bridleway starts from Clothall 3 bridleway on the western side of teh A505. It then follows the former alignment of Wallington Road until it meets the modern alignment of Wallington Road (public road).

A volunteer has photographed this route for the 2022 Access and Riding Rights of Way Survey, and the page will be updated shortly. Find out more!

Clothall 27: At the time of the BHS 2022 Access Survey (19 Sep 22), there was a gate at the western end of the route with a 'step over' point for horses. The step is quite high. There were no signposts to indicate the existence of the route.

Clothall 28: At the time of the BHS 2022 Access Survey (19 Sep 22), there was a gate at the eastern end of the route with a 'step over' point for horses. In front of the step is a bollard set in a large concrete-filled tyre. This obstructs the path for equestrians. There were signposts to indicate the existence of the route at each end of the path.
