Newbe from Darkest Essex

[supersoaraway]

Hi, as I have previously posted in the Southern forum I am a Newbe from Coggeshall Essex. I have not long had my Frontera. I bought it coz it was cheap. It's a fantastic car which takes me 36 miles each way to work and back and serves as a fun car for the 5 of us and the Dog on the weekends. The kids prefer it to the wife's Scenic. I am lucky in that my main hobby is a Beater for my local shoot. I also feed 2 or 3 times a week before I go to work ( I work afternoons and evenings as an Artic driver for Argos ) I need to use my car for this, so I get to drive areas of Markshall Woods where the public dont have access. (There is a Public Byway through the woods if anyone is interested, only about a mile long though.) I have put some photos taken this morning on my own website as I dont know how to do it here. go to

hi simon
do you know of any other 'legal' lanes around here? i know theres a track from allshots airfield that comes out on the cogg/kelvedon road but not sure if its private or not. i'm in kelvedon

Hi Tonyakeila, dont know about the alshots airfield one but I will check on my map. The only other 2 I know of are :-
1/ Off a120 Coggeshall Bypass if heading West there is a road called Ambridge Rd on the Right, Turn up there, keep going straight and the road will turn but a track carries on. This will take you thru Bungate wood. On exit, turn right and that will take you down the Markshall wood route. On exit of that there are 2 short tracks. If you turn left then after a mile or so there is a nice woody track on the right which exits at Brookes Fm. This turns in to a difficult section coz there are lots of deep ruts. The right turn out of Markshall Woods brings you to a left turn which is easy.
2/ The other route is off the A120 Braintree bound from Coggeshall. Turn left in to the A friend caravan park which is next to the Garden Centre. Then turn immediately right, this is a longish track that comes out nr Cressing.
If you need anything else let me know.
