The coast road separates Slapton Sands and Slapton Ley, a National Nature Reserve on it's way between Slapton and Torcross.
This road was built in 2002 after its predecessor was undermined by storms in 2001.
In December 1943, around 3000 residents around this area were evacuated for 12 months for top secret D-Day landing practice on Slapton Sands, chosen for its similarity to Normandy beaches.
