This route starts as Aldenham 15 bridleway on Church Lane, passing through a gap on the southern side of a gateway (pedestrians have another gap on the northern side). It runs along the field boundary to Berrygrove Woods. The path runs along the outside of the woods as Aldenham 92, changing number to Bushey 70 at the parish boundary. It ends at a junction with Bushey 54 bridleway.
This route forms part of the Hertfordshire County Council-promoted 6.4 mile Abbot Trail for walkers, riders and cyclists. At the time of the BHS 2021 Access Survey (13 Sep 21), the gate had a space to the side for horses and it was signposted at the junction with Church Lane. There is an interpretation board at the junction of Aldenham 15 and Aldenham 92. There is a waymark post at the junction with Bushey 54. |
