Signpost for walkers
This signpost is at the junction between the Carlisle Road and a minor road named Quaas Loaning. Turnmuir is a forestry plantation. Quaas Loaning is an ancient route, but has been cut in two by the building of the A74(M). Pedestrians cross the main road via a footbridge, and Quaas Loaning then continues as a farm track.

Playpark in Quaas Loaning
A lack of children using the facilities within the playpark is not unusual. But the name of the location must rank highly among the oddest street names in the UK.
