BW:6 I would like to know why BCC are indicating that there is no right
to ride a horse passed the parish boundary. Why has someone placed a style
over a bridleway gate which is dated 1932? PhotosHistory
The bridleway from Flitwick (Ruxox farm) to Flitton doesn't quite join
up. BCC have stated they would sort this problem, Several years later we
are still waiting for action (maybe its due to the council owning the farm
that they don't want a bridleway running through it.

At some point in time the past or current owner must have extended
their garden across the bridleway. Once across the other side of M1 you
are a just a few hundred meters from Bridleway 22/32 which leads to
Lodge Farm another dead end.
For a number of years the signpost has displayed a bridleway sign pointing both
ways. Then one day a couple of months ago someone replaced the bridleway
sign with a footpath sign. Thus sorting out the bridleway problem
overnight. However several people have noticed the new footpath sign.
Sharpenhoe Clappers, an area of outstanding beauty and site of iron age
fort. The hill is approx 525 ft which gives stunning views of Bedfordshire.
Sadly the Bridleway is in complete isolation. It is not possible to travel
to Pulloxhill and if you are wondering about the bridleway on left hand side
the entrance is blocked by a white van.
The mapping images on this web are provided by Ordnance
Survey data. It is not my intention to infringe copyright, but to
highlight problems with bridleways and byways. The representation on any
mapping image of any road, track or path is no evidence of the existence
of a right of way, however evidence that a surveyor at the time of
survey found the route.
