Wolvens Lane Byway between Coldharbour and Wotton.  Although it is a "BOAT" (Byway open to all traffic), there is currently a temporary closure to four wheel drive vehicles (and horses and carts!), to avoid damage to recent repairs, as indicated by the signs here).  A consultation is currently under way to make the closure permanent.
