Annotated map reproduced courtesy of Googlemaps.	This route starts from Stanstead Abbots 19 bridleway, and continues northwestwards generally parallel to the A414. It then turns northwards through a good-height underbridge of the A414, past a sailing club, then turns eastwards to Marsh Lane. At the time of the BHS 2021 Access Survey (5 Sep 21), where there were gates across the path, there was also a gap to the side for walkers, riders and cyclists. One of these gaps was tight for a large horse (see photo 4). In all, a nice route.			1. Sign at junction with Stanstead Abbots 19 Photo: Phil Wadey, 5 Sep 2021
