A narrow lane not far from where I live, could have been made for a Jimny's width.  It's a proper BOAT with no restrictions but I can't imagine getting anything much bigger down it.  Not helped by two tractor tyres filled with brick at one end.

Thanks R2D.  I can send you the location, or reference if you like?  This is a lane I have known for a while, we walk our dog down here sometimes, so had to wait for an opportunity when it would be quiet, I didn't really want to meet anyone on such a narrow lane with limited opportunity to pass.

I have downloaded the 'Definitive Rights of Way' maps, kml, gpx files for all of the regions round here (Northumberland, Co Durham, North Yorkishire) and identified a few nice little lanes, but Google Earth really helps to see if they can be driven or if the entrance/exit is blocked.

We are really well here, a pity we didn't see each other at the meet-up.

That would be great! Looks like my kind of little lane to try. Perhaps when I am next up I can drop you a private message?

Alas, I chose to do significant repairs to mine just before the meet. I hadn't intended on them being quite so severe but it showed what a state some sections were in (20+ years of rust build-up), so it is finally time to fix it all!
