(crosses picture left-right)

This path comes out on Leybourne Avenue dead end at the southern corner (left), while another path leads from the northern corner.
However, the mapped route of both rights of way come out at the northern corner, and this path runs parallel with its mapped course. It also runs parallel with another path which is untraceable on the ground - see E51 - about the same distance away on the southern side.
Perhaps the routes have evolved this way from natural usage.
