Current status
No restriction we know of
Highstone Lane is recorded as a Unclassified County Road. We haven't found a Traffic Regulation Order or seasonal closure on it, but that doesn't guarantee there isn't one.
It’s on the council’s list of public roads, but that it’s unsurfaced comes from OpenStreetMap, and being a public road doesn’t by itself confirm motor vehicle rights. Check locally before relying on it.
