Jay's Grave is named for the grave of a girl who committed suicide at the eastern end of the trail. Mysterious flowers are still laid there, although no-one claims responsibility. Some believe the grave is haunted as a result.

From a mountain biking perspective the trail is an ancient sunken road which has been rendered straightforward by sanitisation, but at least it's a (rare in these parts) trail which doesn't head sharply up or down!

A fast piece of trail, now surfaced with gravel making for a smoother ride. Narrow in places!

Fun bridleway on an MTB or CX/gravel bike! Watch out for the rocky section with a couple of mini drops and larger rocks towards the east of the segment.
