Compared with its neighbour http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3549914 this path appears to be more heavily used and retains a more distinct line through the rape crop.

Stile near Low Farm
The footpath beyond the stile is clearly only used occasionally - it is nearly overgrown with nettles, brambles and other less tiresome plants! Given the current state of the footpath behind the photographer http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3549914 and the existence of an easier alternative to the west of Low Farm, the lack of use is hardly surprising!

Overgrown footpath
The straight alignment of the footpath to the right of the picture is the result of it following the line of the old incline. Most people now probably use the new footpaths through the housing estate, marked by the lighting columns.
