East Howe: heading to Heather Road on footpath U39

This public footpath has, in recent years, been marked out as a shared foot/cycle route. We see it here from its midway point, heading east to Heather Road - but it also heads right from here, behind us towards Hadow Road. Many of the footpaths on the West Howe estate and thereabouts have been given names in the last couple of years, a safety initiative whose intention is that, in the event of calling for help, one's location can be more easily described. This one has been named Learning Lane, no doubt because it leads to Hadow Road, where the area's primary and secondary schools are located. See Image for the view towards us from the path ahead, and Image for a view along the path to the right.
