Subterranea II (supplementary) - The Road To The Irish Centre
Conclusive proof, as if it were needed, that nobody tells me nothing! The moment I hit 'Go' on the triumphant concluding post on Corby’s world class Subterranea , I just knew there'd be another one. And not just any old 'another one' neither, no, we're talking about arguably Corby’s cutest subway, a well-worn beaut’ of an underground walkway that I'm sure everyone knows about, and yet nobody thought to tell me. The Harlech/Patrick Road subway delivers pedestrians shortly but sweetly under the monstrously busy Sower Leys Road . There's a long skateboard-friendly descent from leafy Patrick Road ( right ), the grassy banks forming a natural linear arena that's ideal for viewing the action, of which there was none on the day I visited. Onwards through what must be regarded as Corby's finest graffiti daubed concrete portal, destination the urban sprawl of Kingswood , Coldermeadow , and the bright lights of Danesholme beyond.
