This byway starts in Ickleford and heads northeastwards to a junction with Ickleford 23 bridleway then continues to Bedford Road, opposite Letchworth 45 bridleway. Note that the crossing of the railway was stopped up to all except walkers and cyclists.
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! |
