Road directions
From the A50:
Take the A514 south, signed towards Swadlincote and Swarkestone and after crossing the railway and travelling about 1/3rd of a mile take the left towards 'Weston' and 'Aston'. Follow this road, you will pass over a slight crest in the road and as you come down the hill on the other side look for the overhead power cables. As you have passed under these the layby to park in is on the left. From here continue on foot around the boundary of the field, heading to the right (or south east) to reach the location.
Parking
There is a small layby with parking for one or two cars, with further laybys along the lane. Do not block field entrances. This can be a popular location so arrive early to ensure you can park safely.
Public transport
Arriva Midlands, Service 61 runs frequenly from Derby Bus Station to Swarkestone, Cuttle Bridge from where it would be a 5-10 minute walk to the location.
Amenities
None at this field location.
Back at the A50 roundabout is the 'Bonnie Prince' Pub which serves food.
Photographic notes
The sun is normally over your shoulder all day.
This location has just this shot looking north west at Sheet Stores Junction bound trains.
