The main road is Ashford Road, while that to the left is Church Hill and to the right Pound Lane. The field beyond Church Hill is now the site of a development known as Myrtle Court. This was named after the late Myrtle Sankey. Her father moved to Pound Farm in 1920 and built a bungalow next door (in which she lived) which he called Rosyth in memory of a stallion he owned which won the Schweppes Gold Trophy in 1963 and 1964 and came second in 1965.
