The course of the old A379, from which this is taken, was along the cul-se-sac on the left. The road (itself a cul-de-sac, see Image]) sweeps around to a T junction with the modern A379. The coast path, which has been following the old road, continues into the cul-de-sac but then turns left, as the verge approaches the main road, onto a path towards the coast.
