Walking towards the high point of Kirkgate Lane the hedgerow trees on the right overhang the track quite dramatically. The surface has reverted to stone from the tarmac patching nearer Whitebeck Lane.
Kirkgate Lane

Kirkgate Lane is an ancient stone surfaced track between Whitebeck Lane, Priest Hutton and Tewitfield Chapel on Kellet Lane. It is not officially classed as a public byway on the OS map but as an "other route with public access". It is a pleasant walk gently rising by approximately 20 metres to its highest point before dropping down towards the Chapel and the bridge over the Lancaster Canal. There are some lovely views to be had through gateways and the ancient hedges are full of wild flowers and shrubby bushes including hazel, elder and sloe.
