Townsend: footpath K45 and a glimpse of Cheshire Drive houses

Image: © Chris Downer Taken: 8 Jan 2017

This public footpath, nowadays marked out as a shared foot/cycle route, runs for 500m or so alongside the main A338 and is essentially a replacement for this segment of Holdenhurst Road, which was lost to make way for the dual carriageway. Holdenhurst Road is still one of the town's main routes but no longer reaches Holdenhurst village as it originally did. Here, we look towards the western end of the path, with the backs of houses of Cheshire Drive visible to the right - they are beyond a strip of public green space the other side of the trees. See Image for the next view on the path ahead, and Image for the next view behind us - each with links to further photos along the route.
