This path now occupies the route of the Great Central Railway through part of Leicester. The railway closed in 1969. Here the path passes beneath another railway line. As it does so, it climbs a slope and bends round to the right, to pass alongside buildings which now occupy the former railway. To the left, behind the trees, you can just about make out the level of the railway tracks.
