Great Central Way, Rowley Fields (1)
Looking towards Glen Parva at its junction with another public bridleway (left), which descends to the bank of the River Biam and then passes beneath the Great Central Way to head west to Braunstone Lane East. The lower of the two signs on the right refers to the branching path, but has been moved at some point to face the wrong way.
Great Central Way, Leicester
The Great Central Way is a 3.5 mile footpath and cycle path between Glen Parva (in Leicester's southern suburbs) and Braunstone Gate (on the western edge of Leicester city centre, close to the De Montfort University campus). It largely uses the trackbed of the London Extension of the former Great Central Railway, this section of which closed in 1969. Apart from approximately one mile at the north end, it is a public bridleway.
