Pete's Walks- Stoke Row, Checkendon, Woodhouse Farm (page 2 of 6)
If you are considering walking this route yourself, please see my disclaimer. You may also like to see these notes about the maps and GPX files.
At the end of the bridleway I went a few yards right along a lane then took a bridleway on the other side that ran a short distance through a wood to reach another lane. Across this, the bridleway continued with a wood called Nipper's Grove on my right, with a couple of large fields on my left. Across Park Lane I continued for a few hundred yards between a hedge and a wooden fence on my right to reach a property at a point marked Whitewood Heath on the OS map.

I then turned right onto a bridleway heading north, which was soon back in more woods. After a few hundred yards, where a field came into view ahead and to my left, the bridleway turned right through an area of trees and Rhododendrons to reach a lane. Here I turned left, following the lane through the hamlet of Hook End. I went straight on where a lane came in from the right, and again where another lane went left. Just past this second junction I turned right onto another bridleway.

Again this bridleway soon brought me into yet more woodland. After almost half a mile I passed through the tiny hamlet of Heath End, and then after another half mile of woods I reached a lane. Here I turned right to swiftly reach a T-junction, where I went left.
