East Harlsey, Low Moor Lane According to the OS benchmark database there was a gatepost at this location with a benchmark. Having cut away the creepers from a very old wooden gatepost I was disappointed not to find the remains of a cut mark. Some wood has rotted in an area where the mark is likely to have been, but today it is completely indistinguishable.

Road junction approaching the A19 Old Lane used to connect to the A19 in both directions at the junction in the distance, but when the trunk road became dual carriageway, a bridge was built to divert this cross route over it. Traffic wanting to head south has to turn left here, cross the bridge and rejoin the main road on the other side.
