The whole legnth of it is on Google streetview. I'm guessing if an Astra with camera pole on the roof got along it, you should be OK. . . . . . wink

This lane has come under a lot of scrutiny at the moment due to some idiots going "off piste" there are signs telling the bobble-hat brigade to shop any 4x4 that they think is causing damage. (there has been a lot caused unfortunately!)
Stay on the hard track, don't go off into the ruts, or up the bankings. In fact I would stay well clear of it for some time.

4x4s have eroded it
