Holloway Path Near the Canal

This path is on a bridleway, and rideable (mtb). The footpath along the river Salwarpe is lovely but liable to get waterlogged. I've spotted heron's in the area.

This is a good walk but there is one bridge that is very poorly maintained with a big hole, inpossible for big dogs, luckily one slat of wood was out so we could get her through the hole. Another stile after that forsnt have a dog pass. This is such a shame as the route is otherwise accessible.
