Nut Bush Lane
Nut Bush Lane runs more or less along the city limits of Torquay; at least, along the watershed between the mainly rural Cockington valley on the left (to which Cockington Lane descends here) and the wholly urban Sherwell valley to the right. Permissive paths cross the field on the other side of the junction, where it is unusual to be seen without a dog. The further junction in the photo is where Nut Bush Lane reverts to a country lane (see Image) and the main route turns right into Drake Avenue.

Upper Cockington Lane
Once one of the few roads in the vicinity, this part of the lane is now reduced to a footpath (TQ 180) running between Drake Avenue and Armada Park recreation ground. https://www.heritagegateway.org.uk/Gateway/Results_Single.aspx?uid=MDV123632&resourceID=104 describes its former significance as a route. Here Alexanders reaches out across the tarmac.
