Passageway between Kingsgate Road and St. Cross Road is around 100m north of originally suggested location of SU 4763 2832. Passageway has old walls along both sides of much of its length. FB not found, but could be behind vegetation. FB height would indicate Kingsgate Road end of passageway (around SU 4780 2842). No BM shown on MasterMap; FB presumably destroyed, and replaced by nearby G3132.
