This is the former A46 roadway – Fosse Way. The tarmacked section is the southbound lane of the old roadway, the northbound lane being covered with soil to make it more suitable for horses, with a few sections left bare as passing places. Just visible are the remains of a white arrow from the old road surface. The new A46 is to the left of the fence. The parched nature of the bridleway side is the result of two months with very little rain where the old tarmac is only thinly covered.
