Looking southwest from the very corner of the dead end of Ophir Gardens (we can see a bit of the double yellow lines at the bottom of the picture). Ophir Gardens was part of Ophir Road until it was severed to make way for the A338 Wessex Way to be built in the early 1970s - the Wessex Way is just to our right. The public footpath leads to a footbridge (the spiral ramp can be seen in the background) and also leads to Portchester Place and Wellington Road via footpath C13 continuing straight on beyond the bridge. See Image] for a picture looking in the same direction but closer to the bridge, and Image] for a view towards us from the footbridge ramp.
