The former line from Louth to Grimsby is a convenient route from Louth for people working on the estate. Here the path heads north from the estate, towards Grimsby. It is not a public right of way although it is used as a path, and becomes a Permissive Bridleway a bit further up. The Lincolnshire Wolds Railway has plans to restore the line (it already operates the section from Fulstow to North Thoresby) although the final part, to the old Louth station, has been redeveloped.
