The A6124 (former B6372) in Crossgatehall
The route started on the A1 (now A199) in the centre of Musselburgh and zigzagged to the south through Inveresk and so out of town. It passed through no further places of any size. It crossed the A6094 about a third of the way along and ended on the A68 at Fordel Mains, to the east of Dalkeith. This is the current eastern end of the A68 Dalkeith bypass and so the road arrangement here has altered beyond recognition.
The B6372 number did not last long here. It was upgraded to Class I status between 1927 and 1932, becoming the A6124, which it remains.
The 1922 MOT Road List defines this route as: Fordel Park - Musselburgh
