Originally the A177 passed through Coxhoe (where the roads have a 17 tonne weight limit), but since the (formerly unclassified) Tursdale road was re-engineered, removing the bends, the A177 passes along this road, multiplexing with the (primary) A688. The A177 reappears at a roundabout underneath the 275kV electricity pylons heading for the Thinford sub-station, heading east across the A1(M) and to the south of Coxhoe. As the road curves right there is a turning for Trimdon and Fishburn (both on the B1278). The next few miles are relatively straight and fast, with a brief dual-carriageway section at the turning for Cornforth. After the B1278 turning, the road passes the Hardwick Hall hotel and country park, before ending just over a mile later at the A689.
