Gate and footpath sign, near A5, Shawell
Gate into wooded area on side of former railway embankment, near A5 Watling Street. This is at the site of former bridge across A5 which was demolished some time ago. Some of the brickworks remains in piles amongst the trees.
The route of the footpath / ROW is unclear, the sign suggests it goes through the trees. However to right of this photo, there is a stile across onto A5.
