The path is bounded by metal fencing on both sides. It seems an odd place to put a path, were it not for the tunnel at the end. The OS Six Inch Map, 1888-1913 Series, shows a settlement here, Little Bayton, off Sydnall Lane (the modern Bayton Road), large enough to support a chapel, the houses along a street where this path now runs. There is no sign of Little Bayton today. https://maps.nls.uk/geo/explore/side-by-side/#zoom=16&lat=52.46645&lon=-1.47469&layers=6&right=OSAPI
