This public footpath runs alongside the main A338 Wessex Way, and here passes the end of Portchester Place, which was a through road - Portchester Road - before the Wessex Way was built. A number of roads were severed in this way, but Portchester Place is unusual in having two short arms, seen here separated by a small green, because Ascham Road used to come out onto Portchester Road before the main road was built. See Image for the next picture along the footpath ahead, and Image for the next one behind us.
