The path was part of Birkhouse Lane in 1850 before the railway was constructed. A narrow bridge was provided under the railway, only wide enough for a footway, and the road was diverted to pass under the railway to the north and along the east side of the railway. The part up to the hamlet of Birkhouse can be seen in the distance, now called Birkhouse Road. The footpath under the railway has become obstructed, and people walk over the railway embankment.
