The B1345 was a loop to the north of the A1 to serve the East Lothian town of Dunbar.
The route started on the A1 in Broxburn and headed northwest into Dunbar where it ran through the town centre before leaving to the southwest. It met the B6370 in West Barns before ending on the A1 again at Beltonford.
It was decided early on to link Dunbar to the A-road network and so the B1345 was renumbered as the A1087 before 1927, which it remains throughout, although the B1345 does not appear to have included the one-way system at the south end of Dunbar's High Street. The two ends of the ex-B1345 no longer meet the A1 as that route has been improved and rerouted.
The 1922 MOT Road List defines this route as: Broxburn - Dunbar - Beltonford
