Church Lane, Stainland This is the old road from Stainland village to Bradley Hall, shown on the 1850 OS map as 'Bradley Lane' and shown earlier on Myers's map of 1835. It is an unadopted street, but despite its 'pedigree' is not classed as a public right-of-way apart from what is implied by being on the street list. An application was made in 2005 for it to be classed as a public bridleway.
