Urban footpath through the Parkhouse estate
The public right of way that ran across the land where the Parkhouse estate was built in the 1980s survives as a series of short urban footpaths like this.

Open space behind the Parkhouse estate
A strip of green space was left between the housing and the A534 Sandbach Bypass (behind the trees to the right). I don't know whether it's technically a public open space but it appears to be used as such.

Pedestrian crossing of the Sandbach Bypass
The crossing only offers a safety barrier (on one side) and a refuge in the middle of the road for safety, with no traffic lights. The crossing follows an established right of way pre-dating the road. A milk tanker heads towards the M6 motorway.

Monarch Place, Sandbach
Part of the new J One Seven housing development. The road is named after a species of butterfly, not after the Queen.
Note - location is estimated from the development site plan, as the road is too new to be shown on public maps yet.

Field of ragwort
I was surprised to see horses in this field given the amount of ragwort growing in it. The trees beyond the field form part of Offley Wood, an ancient woodland, the rest of which was lost with the construction of the Sandbach bypass.
