An interesting rough-hewn statue depicting St Cuthbert, hero of Northumbria, stands on this double bend. The long distance footpath, St Cuthbert's Way, joins the road for a short while at this point - and presumably this is a waymarker for hikers, more than cyclists.

The wooden statue shown here represents a prominent English saint from the seventh century: Saint CUTHBERT of Lindisfarne. He lived from 634 (?) to 687 and, according to the biographies handed down, was a shepherd or soldier before he followed God's calling and became a monk. He lived in various monasteries until 676, but then withdrew to the island of Farne as a hermit. Even at this time, the so-called "reputation of holiness" around him spread, and more and more people from all over Britain sought him out. Eventually he became bishop and abbot of the monastery in Lindisfarne for a short time, but withdrew to his island again, where he died shortly afterwards. The memorial day of Saint Cuthbert in the calendar of saints is March 20th.
