Offroading

When we went out this morning we noticed the Meadow gate was open, so when we came back Henry went to close it. That's when we found out why it was open. Sometime last night someone driving from Old Hutton to Kendal on the B6254 had taken a shortcut at Limestone Brow Corner - across the road, along the verge, through the hedge and fence, down the banking, along the length of The Meadow and out the gate. There are no skid marks, just tracks made by a 4 x 4. Considering the damage to the hedge it's a wonder they were able to drive out. The only evidence left behind is the a silver overrider of a front bumper.

Edit - latest consensus is, it wasn't a 4 x 4. Tyre marks too narrow. No other forensic evidence available - only part of a number plate (not the number bit!).
