This is the A303 London to Exeter main road seen from the B3048 flyover near Forton. Apart from the dualling of the road, much has changed here in recent years. The flyover replaced a railway bridge which crossed the road here. The petrol station took the place of a roadside inn. An industrial estate hidden behind the trees on the left replaced railway sidings that served a large wartime ammunition depot.
