Continue the hilly road and upon reaching the crest of the hill there is a Period House on the roadside with former stabling and a courtyard known as Mill Bank and the next left hand sign-posted Suckley 3 Miles. If you continue on this road and see a garage on the left hand side within 100 yards then. Stop and turn around. After taking the turn, proceed cautiously down the lane passing a very grand white stucco estate property (A Spa Retreat). Continue until the road forks.
