Seen here at its junction with Manor Road/Somers Road. This private road follows the route of the track that connected Reigate with the east-west pilgrims' route to Canterbury. However, despite the road name suggesting that it formed part of the main pilgrims' route, this has been refuted, although it was almost certainly used by those wanting to divert to civilisation (or refreshment!) in Reigate. It now forms part of the Millennium Trail, a pathway sponsored by Reigate and Banstead District Council, and which links with the track up Colley Hill, seen in the background.
