Chithurst Lane, Surrey The status of this lane south of Chithurst Farm is not known to me. There are no public footpath or bridleway markings on the OS map, where it is just shown as a 'white' road. Whether it actually emerges anywhere at the southern end I do not know. As can be seen from the photograph, it is barely motorable.

Chithurst Lane The lane is a no-through road for motor vehicles, but still maintained by the county council as far as Brick Barns Farm, useable if you don't mind the odd pothole (see also <a href="https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/212606">TQ3341 : Chithurst Lane, Surrey</a>). Beyond Brick Barns Farm is a bridleway which connects with West Park Road (B2028), although the entire route was perhaps once a through road. For a minor country lane, it cuts a remarkably wide swathe through the fields: nearly 30m between the field boundaries on either side.
