Hannington Place is a public footpath, number G04, and also a driveway to a few properties, which runs from Christchurch Road, turns to run alongside the railway line and comes out at the dead end of York Place. The longer straight, abutting the railway, has been tarmacked in fairly recent years, having been a gravel drive previously. Here, we look along it as it runs alongside the railway - Pokesdown station has particularly long platforms and by the time we reach this western extremity, the canopy has long come to an end. 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 routes.
