The cycle route follows the line of the old railway from Sunderland to Penshaw. The wooden posts set at an angle are designed to stop motor bikes, but are also an obstacle to pedal cycles with long handlebars. The low rail adjoining is a horse stile which horses can step over but which also should prove a deterrent to motor bikes.
