The footpath in the foreground leads down from the Leisure Centre ... Hunshelf Bank is in the background. Oaks Avenue is part of a small housing estate, built in 1918, known as the Garden Village Estate. When the houses were originally built, each had a Fruit Tree planted in its garden ... donated from the nearby Oxley's Fruit Farm (now long gone). I have to say that, now, there isn't much evidence of these Fruit Trees!
