This is the proposed new route for cyclists to replace the A3 at Hindhead
(the Devils Punchbowl) :
Apparently the National Trust use it to wash their
Land Rovers...
The A3 is to be dualled at this location and put in a tunnel, avoiding
the scenic National Trust estate. All well and good, but what cyclists wanted
was for a narrow section of the old A3 to be preserved as a cycle route.
All is not lost however as the Old Portsmouth Rd has been re-surfaced:-
(This would have been the route Nelson used when he went down to Portsmouth to join the fleet)
