Eastbury: Westbury Road
Yes this is Westbury Road in Eastbury...
The Ordnance Survey's 1:50,000 scale mapping shows a series of solid red circles along this road, meaning that it is an "Other route with public access (not normally shown in urban areas)". On the Ordnance Survey's 1:25,000 scale maps the same symbol is used but in solid green. Perhaps the road is historically a private one, but one for which there is a public right of way. There is certainly nothing to differentiate it from any other road.
The houses on the left are probably at the very limit of the built-up area of London. On the right is The Fairway.

The London LOOP crossing Sandy Lodge Golf Course
Sandy Lodge Golf Course was founded in 1910. It was formed by a frustrated London businessman who was tired of playing golf on muddy parks around London and realised that the sandy soil of Sandy Lodge Farm would be perfect for playing golf. During the Second World War it was turned over to grazing but was restored afterwards although some of the sandy areas were lost to tree and shrub growth.
The London LOOP passes diagonally across the course from south-west to north-east although nearest to the former it is mostly rough grassland as seen here. The line of pylons follow the LOOP for the first part.

Apples and Cables
Between the houses on Westbury Road and the Sandy Lodge Golf Course is a strip of vacant land beneath this cable way. With long grass and self set trees and bushes it is also the route for the London Loop Path.
