Looking down from the road between the to west side car parks, is the gate to the lane.
Most 'boggy' part of the lane off the hills
Gate to the lane, just kept closed with some twine
Lane beyond gate, surface is loose rock and mud
Decending into the village. Pub straight ahead at the bottom
Finally heres the proof
I didn't drive it in the end due to the number of people on the hills at the time (honestly i have never seen it so busy) also the park ranger was around. Although I would of been perfectly legal to do so, with the current bad press 4x4's are having I didn't want to add fuel to the fire as it were, especially as a lot of people are not aware of 'greenlanes' are there being no singage on the hill side to indicate it as a right of way.
For anyone not familiar with burton dasset the gradient of the hills is steep. In my opinion the lane would be perfectaly driveable in a decent by any 4x4 with a good set of even road bias tyres, due gravty being on your side, i doubt you could get stuck. However coming back up from the village end is a different kettle of fish I would certainly recommend a set of muddies or at least decent A/T's to get up it at this time of year.
