This route starts formally from the A505 slip road but after a very short distance has a junction with Rushden and Wallington 48 bridleway (which passes under the A505). Rushden and Wallington 41 bridleway turns southeastwards away from the A505 before turning southwestwards past a junction with Rushden and Wallington 25 footpath, to end on Wallington Road (public road). We need a volunteer to photograph this route for this year's Access and Riding Rights of Way Survey. It's easy - just take photographs (safely) when you use the path. Find out more!
