A new housing scheme is currently being built out adjacent to Shirley Road in Rushden. For complex reasons, the building site is accessed through Prospect Avenue, rather than Shirley Road or John Clark Way (both of which would have been more sensible.)
The grassy area near the site entrance has been churned up quite badly.
At the same time, the path from Prospect Avenue to the East Northants Greenway has been closed off.
