Dist:0.2km<br/>Part of a pedestrian route linking Dechmont, to the north, with Livingston, to the south. At one time cars have been able to use the lane to reach a small car park serving North Wood, but now the road is gated.

Dist:0.5km<br/>This was once the A8 Edinburgh to Glasgow road, eventually by passed, and the by pass was in turn superseded by the M8, so this is now a relatively quiet 'yellow' road. The West Lothian bridge logo is a reference to the Newbridge viaduct over the River Almond - see [[NT1172]] and [[NT1072]].
