Path in Ash Dale I was tempted into following this path which is marked on the OS map. It isn't a right of way, although it does link two public footpaths. Easy enough to follow, but in places the surface is badly drained and churned up, whilst the amount of brambles to fight through increases as one heads south. Not recommended.
