From Southam, take the B4451 out through Depper Bridge. When you see the 'Great Western' pub on the right hand-side, there will be a left hand turn you need which brings you into Bishops Itchington. Turn left down either Fisher Road or Chapel Street, and continue to the bottom of the village via Poplar Road. You will the see Hambridge Road which is the road you need to turn into. Follow this road downhill. There will be quite a sharp right hand bend before the road crosses the stream. Just after this is a public footpath on the left. This leads to the location.
You can park on the grass verge, but there is not that much room. You may be happier to park you car at the bottom end of the village, and walk the rest.
Stagecoach service 64 operates hourly from Leamington Spa to Bishops Itchington village, from where it would be about a 25-30 minute walk to the location.
There are a couple of shops in the village where snacks can be purchased.
Ale fans may want to try the Butchers arms in Fisher Street, or the previously mentioned Great Western.......
Shots can be had here from both directions from the crossing.
