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 along the path about three quarters of the way to the eastern end, as the dividing line between the foot and cycle paths takes an unexpected diversion for a few yards. 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.
