Annotated map reproduced courtesy of Googlemaps.	This route starts from Lower Road (public road) and continues generally northeastwards to the parish boundary. At the time of the 2025 Access Survey (18 Aug 25), no gates were across the path and it was signposted (footpath) at the road junction. There was a gate at the junction with Ware Town 27, but this was fixed open, and had a gap to the side in any case.
