This is where an existing right of way leaves the new J One Seven development. before the bypass was built, the access to the old town waterworks left Congleton Road at about this point. Beyond the wooden fence is a petrol station with a fairly large Co-Op convenience store which will be the nearest food shop for the large housing estate. The footpath to this point has been tarmac surfaced, but why they have not removed the stile and surfaced the last few metres of footpath beyond the fence to make it a fully accessible route to the shop is beyond me.
