Numerous small lanes and roads in Cambridgeshire and Lincolnshire are being wrecked by farm machinery and articulated lorries which appear to get bigger and heavier every year. They are now basically too large for the road infrastructure which was never designed to carry such tonnages. Conditions are particularly bad during the potato and sugar beet harvest at this time of year. This is the crossroads where Flint House Road and Cock Fen Road meet Horsehead Drove between Three Holes and Welney
