I'm not arguing against the roundabout as I think it will prevent accidents and improve the flow of traffic from Pelton and Newfield onto the A693. However, I presumed would have been made four-way to include an additional junction for High Handenhold/High Urpeth instead of keeping the existing junction and road layout. Traffic emerging from High Handenhold aren't even prohibited from turning right on the A693. I think it would have made more sense to make traffic use the roundabout to turn around first.

Apart from the roundabout at Batleys, the others on that stretch of the A693 are all strange in design. Leaving quite a few questions.
This one, Perkinsville and the one at Blind Lane/Park Road North.
