Looking back at the roundabout - you can see the big tree that is on top of the mound on the other side of the roundabout.

Standing on the old road. Further up is the remans of the old road that is still used for local traffic (apologies for the black bit!)

The sign is indicating the roundabout at the end of the bypass.

Approaching the junction with the A60.
