Bear Cross: footpath E05 to Anchor Close
A very short public footpath - just 13 metres in length - linking the main Ringwood Road with the adjacent dead end of Anchor Close.
The sign on the reverse of the bollard is for a shared foot/cycle path, referring to the pavement of Ringwood Road, where we are standing. The sign on this side denotes that cyclists should dismount on the path ahead.

Bear Cross: the dead end of Anchor Close
The end of Anchor Close does a little right-angled turn just behind us, to head back toward the main Ringwood Road without quite meeting it. To far left, a little public footpath does meet Ringwood Road, which we see in the background.
