The name High Howe Close refers to the road ahead and the turning to the right, while the main carriageway continues as Littlemoor Avenue, out of shot to the left. 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 view in this direction, from around the bend ahead.
