The line it runs

It passes through Beckenham, Sydenham, every suburb the line crosses, not just the one its middle sits in.

The lines it meets

Other open lines whose drawn course comes within 40 m of this one, the layer splits one trail into many features, so a line it touches is often the same walk’s next leg.
