This route starts from Charlton Road and continues generally southeastwards along Brick Kiln Lane and past a junction with Hitchin 41 restricted byway to end on Gosmore Road. We need a volunteer to photograph this route for this year's Access and Riding Rights of Way Survey. It's easy - just take photographs (safely) when you use the path. Find out more!
