This gateway marks the last house at the side of this maintained section of the Old Newark Road, because within the next 100 yds it becomes an earth track. A quarter of a mile behind the photographer, Old Newark Road joins Lichfield Lane and then soon afterwards the latter joins the A60 (Mansfield-Nottingham) Road near to the West Notts College site. Four or so miles ahead, at the other end of this route - some sections of which are maintained, whilst others have been left as rough tracks - Old Newark Road joins the A6191 dual carriageway (a.k.a. Southwell Road West) near to the Three Thorn Hollow roundabout. Arable farmland belonging to Fir's Farm exists behind the hedgerow on the right.
