The path beside the Fossdyke has at one end the Brayford pool in Lincoln with pubs, restaurants and cinema. The route continues past the Pyewipe Inn, Beyond that is Burton Waters with the very popular Woodcocks. Further on is the village of Saxilby with its railway station.

Lovely old church, nice place to take 5, before climbing up the hill.

Not a bad place to stop for a break, refuel just off the main road with big views over the surrounding area, shame there are no longer any planes to watch from RAF Scampton.

On the app the road / path shows as passable. However at one end there's a big locked gate and at both ends there is signage saying "no public access". I didn't fancy putting on a 4 mile dog-leg, so I squeezed between the gate and a hedge and chanced it but... It certainly seems to be a private road, so the whole stretch is probably best avoided.
