Front seat night time bus ride on First Essex (Hadleigh) ADL Enviro400 34459 (LJ59 LYT) - with service 27 on rare eastbound diversion via Daws Heath.
We start with an ascent of the testing Bread & Cheese Hill.
On approach to Hadleigh Depot we unexpectedly divert north and then run via rural Daws Heath on roads not usually served by double-deckers, before rejoining the normal route at Hadleigh Church.
