Two trees stand in the pavement on this residential side street. This northern segment of High Howe Close is designated a byway open to all traffic. I don't know why this particular stretch of road should be labelled as such: maybe it was a historical route when this was heathland, and the modern road network incorporated it. It is numbered U12 on Bournemouth Borough Council's list of public rights of way. See Image for a picture of the road from its northern end (behind us) and Image for a picture from just around the bend ahead.
