Stuart Prouse
November 24, 2024, Firm Field Edge Path

This field was easy to pass through and no mud accumulating problems. The ground is fairly compact and the plants seem to eliminate mud problems. It is easy to ride though this section at speed

The back of the church has a decent off road section which has a firm surface and is easily passable. There are a couple of graveyards with some people walking about in this area

There is a decent cycleway / path on the side of the main road into Sleaford from this southern entrance. I had to go back and forward on this path as further along there was another section of terribly bad muddy fields that would have stopped the bikes transmission and just clogged the bike up

Half buried in the hedgerow are the remains of a Second World War air raid shelter. It is a shelter of the Stanton precast concrete segment type. The steel reinforced concrete sections were bolted together, making a shelter of any length. The type was favoured by the Air Ministry. Why is it there in a hedgerow miles from an airfield?

Beautiful quiet path running through Ancaster valley. Keep your eyes peeled for the rich variety of wildlife that lives in the area.
