North Mymms 92 runs along the line of the ancient Dellsome Lane. It starts at the boundary of the A1(M) motorway and continues generally eastwards to a junction with North Mymms 93 restricted byway then east and southeast to a junction with North Mymms 22 restricted byway. It then continues as a restricted byway generally southeastwards to the metalled part of Dellsome Lane (public 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!
