This drive is older than the adjoining properties. The OS 1:2500 map of 1889 shows a meandering path between trees that meets the floodmeadow and bears east to Myton Grange (a large house where Myton Hamlet hospice is now). Subsequently the path is not shown although presumably this narrow strip was an access to the floodmeadow, now the sportsground, which is first shown on the map of 1953-68. This tree-lined strip is shown as a drive.
