From the Fifield Bavant - Dinton road, C.64, High Street, about 45 m south-east

Green Drove Cottages. Approximate length: 548.5 metres. Width: 1 metre. Part

The path leaves High Street at a metal finger post (004289) showing the Public
Footpath to be up steps past a metal safety rail. Climb steeply between gardens
on each side [1] and up two flights of steps, between which you cross the
route of
the old Camp railway. The path then reaches a stile (005290) on which there is
a double-headed disc [3], indicating the directions of
Path 3
.
From this point, the route of the path is completely unclear and an alternative route along a parallel hedgerow to the north has come to be used Turn left to find this route [4] which starts at the junction of Path 3 and Path 5 (003291) and runs along the north side of the hedgerow. It leads to a wide gap in the hedgerow (009292) along Green Drove (Path 17) [5]. |

The path officially starts in
Green Drove
(Path 17) opposite Green Drove
Cottages, but as the route of the path is completely unclear, an alternative
route has come to be used.
This starts farther to the north along Green Drove [5] where there is a wide gap in the hedgerow to the west. (009292) Then follow the edge of the cultivated field, keeping to the north side of the hedgerow [4]. This will lead you to the junction of Path 3 and Path 5 (003291) where you should cross the stile and bear left along Path 3 until you see a waymarked stile on your right [3] (there are other stiles which have no waymarks on them). Climb over that stile (005290) and go down two flights of steps, between which you cross the route of the old Camp railway. Continue descending steeply [2] until you come to a guard rail and finger post on High Street (004289). |
