Airport intruders
This unadopted part of Brooks Drive - which, for much of its length towards Brooklands, is impassable to cars - used to be frequented largely by dog walkers and cyclists: no longer: the exigencies of nearby Manchester International Airport have led people to leave their cars in every available space, especially if there is nothing to pay. One wonders whether this particular example has the blessing of local landowners in Davenport Green.
Brooks Drive itself dates back to the 19th century and was created by Victorian banker Samuel Brooks. He intended it as an ornamental carriage drive connecting Prospect House, his country residence in Hale Barns, with his estates in Whalley Range, Manchester, via the eponymous suburb of Brooklands. He likewise financed Brooklands Station on the Manchester/Altrincham line.

Overgrown Brooks Drive
A former tree lined carriage drive for commuters connecting Hale Barns with Brooklands railway station. This part has become overgrown since just ahead a metal security fence blocks the drive. There is also security fencing down the sides. Hopefully the blockage can be removed as Trafford Council have notices displayed about their intention to modify the definitive map to make Brooks Drive a restricted byway.
