From Harold Wood station to Laithcoats Farm, Beehive Lane, Galleywood, Chelmsford.
Slight adjustments to the start of the route, to go through Dagnam Park (gravel) where the deer roam free. Towards the end of the route there's a steep climb, up to 10%. After that, made a slight change to take a road through the housing estate, coming out almost opposite the farm entrance and avoiding most of Beehive Lane, which is too straight and too fast.
Laithcoats Farm grows many variety of apples and stocks many more, in addition to luxury farmshop goodies. Also a cafe and some farm animals. Closed at 5pm and on Sundays.
