Just come back from driving this lane http://www.iwebtool.com/shortcut/7863 (south to north). It goes on for miles, I only drove this 1st bit over the canal to where the lane meets the roads that crosses its path. Is a nice lane and a bit muddy in places :D

I looked at carrying on to the second stretch of lane, but the entrance to the next part of the lane looked very boggy, i was itching to try it, but since i had no back up, I didnt. Andy ud enjoy this mate, its a proper bit of quality 4x4 action.

I went around to the end of the lane (where it meets the fosse way) and tried driving north to south, but after driving almost a mile into it, I had to reverse for what felt like 1/2 a mile before i could turn around due to a very very boggy bit and half a branch across the lane.

Andy you up for this mate? I feel we might need a saw to cut a couple of branches down but its the best lane(s) ive driven/found round here.

Excellent mate. Ill pack a handsaw for the smaller bits. I think due to the nature of the beast it will have to be a daylight run.

Im free now till the new year so whenever ure free also mate, we can go tackle it.
