Footpath Shackleford 298/300 from Shackleford to Hurtmore here crosses the busy A3 on the level, with a stagger provided in the central reservation crash barriers. With only two lanes to cross on each carriageway, it's not quite as bad as some others across the A3, but it's described in the Ramblers' Association's "You're either quick or dead" as 'dangerous'. Couldn't argue with that. On the far side of the crossing, the footpath becomes Rokers Lane, a hedged green lane leading to Shackleford. A pleasant walk, but best avoided during the rush hour or at busy weekends.

Dist:0.4km<br/>This is taken from outside the Squirrel Inn. On the right is the way to the re-aligned road from the A3 to the hamlet of Hurtmore. The road sign (low bridge) is at the end of the bridleway down to Hurtmore Bottom (see other photo). Then leftwards there is a gate at the end of the drive, which was the original road up to Hurtmore. This was in a cutting, and the footway is a separate footpath, to the left of it, which gives access to a row of semi-detached houses.
