I nearly total'd my saab coming down there with an unbraked trailer pushing me on, tight bends.
So last night i went up there, really need the 2 way radios so someone can sit at the top and give a heads up if anything comes past. Difficult looking out the side window to see round the bend. Fun bit of road though.

Unfortunately the surface of this road is getting pretty bad

It certainly is an interesting road, and best of all its less than 5 mins from my front door. Turn left from the drive, and I can be there in less time than takes to hard boil an egg.

Well well well. I thought you were in Blandford. How close to the road are you? I'm not inviting myself around or anything.
I often come though that way just for a change, off 303, Gillingham, Shaftesbury, Zig Zag, can't remember all the names of villages, Sixpenny Handley, Tollard Royal.

I am right on the edge of Blandford, just off what is known locally as the "High Road". I would turn left from here, head off towards Melbury Abbas and access zig zag hill from just the other side of Melbury. Or I could go up through Compton Abbas airfield. Assuming I am thinking of the same zig zag hill.
