A390 junction with road south to Harrowbarrow

The A390 runs along much of the length of Cornwall. It heads across river valleys rather than along them, and therefore is hilly and windy. As such, it makes it fun to drive, and is never the same throughout its length. It runs 60 miles from Tavistock SX4773 : A390, Tavistock to Three Burrows. Link

Lay-by by A390 to west of Mount Pleasant

There is advance warning of cycles crossing because the cycle track is on the left of the road and cyclists will cross to a track on the right. Pedestrians must also cross, but there is no advance warning, possibly because there is very little pedestrian traffic on the path on the left
