Bournemouth: private access to Meyrick Park from Kensington Drive

This is not a public right of way. However, I had wandered up the small cul-de-sac a few weeks ago [October 2010] wondering if there was access to the golf course. Because the driveway up which we are looking has a small 'Private' sign on the wall off to our left, I had assumed that no public access was available. But today I was walking through the golf course and noticed a private gate with a sign saying 'Access to main road 100 yards' and when I followed the periphery of the park to find the opening, this is where I came out. However, I have received confirmation [October 2018] that there is no public right of way, so this is not therefore an official access to the park. The sign referred to above has been removed and one recently [January 2019] affixed to the fence at the top of the steps - see Image
