Body: <p>I have a section called 'news' (url: /news) and have setup in my templates folder /news/index.html which I could access previously.
  I then created a route: news/* to go to another template and then deleted it. I can now no longer access /news and it gives the 404 error page.
  I have duplicated the news template and renamed it to newsblah and when I go to the url /newsblah I can view the page.</p>
  
  <p>I have cleared the cache on the settings page. Any ideas as to why this may be? very puzzling...</p>
