Directions to Manor Road Community Woodland
Drive up the Wellsway about 1 mile from the New Inn roundabout. Turn left immediately after the Hurn lane turning (also on the left) into Manor road. Proceed about ½ mile along Manor Road until the houses run out. Park where you can (probably in the housing estate).

Directions to Dapp's Hill Bridge
Drive along Temple Street (at the end of the High Street) about ¼ mile past the fire station and Ship Inn. Turn left down Dapp's Hill on the sharp right hand corner which is the junction of Temple Street and Albert Road. Turn left at the bottom of the hill, and the bridge is right in front of you. Park where you can (possibly on Dapp's Hill).

Directions to Baptist Church Hall
The Baptist Church Hall is half-way along Keynsham's High Street.

Directions to Elm Farm
Drive up the Wellsway until you drop down the hill into Burnett.  Turn right at the cross-roads and continue into Burnett for about 100m.  Elm Farm is clearly identified on the left hand side.  See their website for further details.

See Mr Sage if you need any further directions.
