Looking across Poole Lane across the former course of a public footpath to Ringwood Road. It is still eminently navigable - however, a housing development, Oakmead Gardens, has been built in the last few years, part of which incorporates a tarmacked, shared foot/cycle path. As a result, modern right of way maps show the route of the footpath as having been diverted to follow the new surfaced route - along the pavement of Oakmead Gardens to start with, and then along the shared path. See Image for the start of Oakmead Gardens, which is a short distance to our right, and links to further photos along the route.
