What to expect

• Tilehouse Lane remains a single track lane with passing places and connections to the bridleway and public rights of way in the area.
• Vehicles from the local quarry will continue to use Tilehouse Lane and we advise all road users and pedestrians to use caution and care when using the reinstated public highway.
