Buildwas Lane is a medieval cartway linking Little Wenlock with Buildwas. It's the best mountain bike descent in east Shropshire, especially in summertime when the track's dry; although it can get a bit muddy in the winter, being unsurfaced for much of its length. Apparently it features on some satnav systems as a public road, which led to an interesting incident a couple of years ago with a Tesco home-delivery driver who didn't know the area. It required a tractor to extricate his vehicle.
