This route starts (as Stanstead Abbots 16 bridleway) from Cappell Lane (public road), and continues generally northwards to turn southeastwards (as Stanstead Abbots 18 bridleway), crossing Stanstead Abbots 17 bridleway and continuing southeastwards and southwards to end on Hunsdon Road (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!
