The bridleway between Oaklands Lane and Coopers Green Lane used to run in a straight line between them. However the active gravel extraction workings at the Cemex Hatfield Quarry have forced a diversion, so now the bridleway runs alongside the quarry. Here it runs just inside the quarry boundary fence, on the left with Oaklands Lane beyond.
