The 'S' bend towards the end of the minor road - watch your speed on the camber of the first bend. The second bend is easier.

 

At the end of the minor road you join the A417 - watch out for fast-moving traffic from the right. Give Way!

View of the junction - turn left here and go up a short bank. View to the right - a good sight-line but traffic could be fast-moving.

 

You are now on the A417 and heading back to Corse / Staunton.

The short bank to climb immediately after turning onto the A417.   A mile further on, the main climb on the A417 - a gentle rise!

And of course you get to go back down. This is the fastest part of the course - big gear into the village.
