This notorious junction at Leadburn claimed its latest life on November 12th 2005. A car travelling from the POV drove straight into the 19th century inn that stood here. The driver was killed, and the pub destroyed by fire. The ruin was demolished shortly afterwards and the site is visible as a pile of rubble.
