Observers standing here are facing the start of (or the conclusion of) the asphalted end of Bleak Hills Lane, a road that runs from Sheepbridge Road and High Oakham Hill to this point. Current maps still identify this property as "Beeton's Cottage", although it looks as though this has been replaced by this large replacement called Bleak Hills House. On the right, behind the 'turning place', are a set of locked 7ft high mesh/grid gates and on the other side of which is a grassed track that has the potential to link up with Cauldwell Road via Lower Oakham, although who has rights of access is not clear. Behind the photographer is a footpath that connects with Hamilton Way in the vicinity of a 'light industrial' zone in the Bleak Hills area.
