Sheepwash Lane is a short public footpath, number J11, from Castle Lane behind us to this gate, giving access to the riverside path (the onward path swings left just beyond the gate). The area here was certainly historically known as Sheepwash, and that word is carved into the topmost bar of the gate - it may only be as a result of the houses, built ten years or so ago on the lane, needing a postal address that the lane itself has officially been called Sheepwash Lane. See Image for the view through the gate along the lane behind us.
