Ditch and footpath at The Ridings
The path should eventually continue through to the eastern end of Hammonds Pond, but at this stage there was no access to the park from the new housing estate. An old public footpath between Blackwell and Upperby was diverted to enable development of The Ridings - see for example Image .

Drainage channel
Between recently constructed houses at The Ridings. This follows the line of a pre-existing ditch along a former field margin. Further ahead the old ditch took a 45 degree turn to the north east (see Image ), but a new straight course has been dug to take the flow in a northerly direction.
The tower of St Margaret Mary's Catholic Church (Scalegate Road) is visible in the distance.

Fields to the south of Hammonds Pond (2007)
A footpath runs beside the hedge, turning in a northeasterly direction by the telecommunications mast.
When The Ridings estate was built a few years later, the oak tree on the left was retained, becoming the centrepiece of a lawned open space.
