Cows and Crash Barrier

The cows in this field must need some controlling at times given the motorway barrier in use at the field entrance.

The end of the road

Habertoft consists of three houses, a farm and a small agricultural engineering works. The metalled road stops here but the way carries on across the fields as a farm track.

Overgrown path

This is a public footpath would you believe!

One road in and one road out

Habertoft, comprising 3 houses and one large farm, is at the end of the road. Even so it still has its own post box. Looking towards Orby Bank and Welton-le-Marsh.

Farm track and dyke near Habertoft

At the point where the track ends, a footpath heads northwards to Habertoft. I'm standing near where another footpath is marked on the map, but there is no sign in the field.

Footpath to Habertoft

The footpath is clear and well defined this end, even though there is no sign, but at the other end the exit is completely blocked.

Footpath at Habertoft

The only thing that's happened since Kate Jewell visited these parts, Link is that the weeds have started to die back. Not much of a footpath. Link

Footbridge at Habertoft

The footpath beyond the bridge is completely overgrown. Another house appears to have been built since Kate Jewel visited this square, the grounds of which are beyond. There is another footpath to the east and this has been tied off with baling twine. Two footpaths unavailable in the same square.
