Throop: the blue roof of Blue Roof Farm

We are looking across a double-bend in Mill Road (North) towards this distinctive bungalow farmhouse. The lane forms byway open to all traffic (or B.O.A.T.) number K22, which used to extend along Mill Road (South) to Castle Lane before the latter segment was incorporated into the modern housing estate as part of the public highway. As can be seen here, it is tarmacked at this northern end but it is not a terribly good surface and is more akin to a track than to a road. See Image for the next view along the road to the left, and Image for the next view to the right.
