Dist:0.1km<br/>The Golden Hart public house in the hollow at Nettleton, on the A417. It is not quite dawn, and the gloom persists in the hollows, as the headlights on passing cars reveals..

Dist:0.2km<br/>Probably started off named 'Hart' after the animals which must have been very numerous here when the Cotswolds were much covered in woodland.

Dist:0.2km<br/>Even at a quiet time of day mid-week a queue of traffic has immediately formed on the single lane section of the A417 around Birdlip. Various schemes have been proposed to eliminate the notorious bottleneck, but the political will to complete the A417/A419 trunk route has simply not been there. The latest scheme was cancelled in 2009. For details, see: http://www.highways.gov.uk/roads/projects/3617.aspx

Dist:0.3km<br/>The final few yards of proper road before the Birdlip bottleneck. The photograph was taken around 2pm on a Wednesday. In a couple of hours, traffic will be queuing back from the roundabout due to the severely reduced road capacity ahead (lower speed as well as single lane).

Dist:0.4km<br/>A plethora of possibilities for danger on the only unimproved section of the A417/A419 primary route. Steep gradients, sharp curves, traffic joining at hidden junctions: it's got them all! Various schemes have been proposed to eliminate this dangerous section of road, but the political will has simply not been there. The latest scheme was cancelled in 2009.
