The route progresses to the southeast, following Main Street through the southern, lesser developed parts of the village before leaving the community after crossing over the Batten Kill.

Across the river, the road's surroundings become less developed as it winds its way through the rural parts of eastern Washington County.

[3] After this bend to the south, the highway traverses undeveloped areas until it reaches an intersection with County Route 74A (CR 74A).

Just east of the town line, NY 372 meets CR 60 prior to resuming a southeastern progression toward the village of Cambridge.

The next segment to be upgraded and included in the system, the portion inside of the village of Greenwich, was added on September 14, 1918, as SH 1436.
