More ancient lanes of the type the Quantocks is famous for. This one is pretty steep, as these things go - so frankly it makes a much better descent than a climb!

It can get a little alternately rocky and muddy when the weather is less than ideal, so be on your guard! Happily it's relatively quiet, at least compared to many of the trails to the north.
