I don't know if this will work but, here's a shot taken from the Eastern end of the runway at Machrihanish, the public road running parallel to the taxiway that crosses the end of the runway:



ISTR, from my time there that it had traffic lights on the road, which you can see running across the base of the runway. I can't ever remember the public road actually crossing, let alone running along the runway, but you certainly got some low approaches when sitting at the lights. The road, of your experience, must be this one as the other end of the runway opens directly onto the golf course, beach then loads of oggin. Hope that makes sense and helps.
