The two-lane undivided state highway heads south, skirting the southern edge of the community.
MD 329 continues east past farmland and scattered residences, heading around the other branch of Oak Creek.
After Hopkins Neck Road, the state highway heads straight northeast through a forested area to its eastern terminus at MD 33.
[1][2] MD 329 follows the path of the original road between Easton and Saint Michaels, which generally followed present-day MD 33 except for dipping south around the head of Oak Creek and passing through Royal Oak.
[3][4] When MD 33 was constructed in the early 1920s, it paralleled the Baltimore, Chesapeake and Atlantic Railway through Newcomb.
