Page created purely to record the order stopping up route, to save anyone performing historical research from applying to record an extinguished route. The route from the junction of Westmill 5 and Westmill 7, shown on the definitive map as Westmill 5 (part) and Westmill 6 CRB, ran southwestwards to Great Munden 59 byway. This was stopped up in 1981 and Westmill 10 bridleway was created in lieu.

Legal History 2 Feb 1953: The route was recorded as CRB (Carriage Road used as a Bridleway) on the original definitive map and statement. DM sheet DM1-9. 7 Aug 1981: London Gazette notices of intention to ask Magistrates to stop up Westmill 6 and Westmill 5 CRB (part). HCC reference DM1/074. 8 Sep 1981: Petty Sessional Diversion of Hertford and Ware Extinguishment of CRB6 and CRB5 (part) Parish of Westmill Order 1981 stopped up the route and created Westmill 10 bridleway.
