Continue straight ahead across the middle of the field, cutting through a gap in the hedgerow where you will cross the ditch. In the next field turn right and follow the edge of the field. When you are approximately halfway across the field take a cut through the clump of trees which will lead into the adjacent field. Keep left and follow this field to the end, heading in a south with the hedgerow to your left. At the end of the field cross a stile into Sutton Lane Meadows.
