The roads leading north from the crossroads at Marholm are effectively dead ends for anyone in a car. Hurn Road ends up at a footbridge over the East Coast Main Line, whilst the rather longer Woodcroft Road ends up at the gated Woodcroft Crossing where it is possible to cross but warning notices state that it could be a 30 minute delay. This is the view from the footbridge at the end of Hurn Road near Gate House Farm. Clearly this was once a level crossing. The East Coast Main Line is on the nearside whilst the two tracks on the far left belong to the line from Peterborough to Stamford. An East Coast 225 heads away from Peterborough.
