Few gates but nice way across to bottom of Dorchester (Grey's Bridge). Runs alongside river and near to Stinsford. Thomas Hardy buried in Stinsford Church. You can come off Bockhampton Lane a bit lower down - can be flooded there on occasion.
Not a path for speed really can be lots of walkers and passing room spare but rather splendid. Not "technically' challenging.
