Styleman's Lane, Bishop's Stortford.
The clubhouse can be reached on foot/bike by following the towpath along the river southwards from Bishops Stortford. It is next to Southmill Lock, about 1 mile from the town centre. If approaching the clubhouse along the river from the south (Pig Lane / Twyford Lock), please make sure you are on the towpath on the east side of the river. To drive to the club, leave Bishop's Stortford southwards on the A1060 (Hallingbury Road). Styleman's Lane is a very small turning on the right, just after the "Welcome to Essex" and national speed limit signs, and just before Darlington's Aggregates. For navigation purposes only, the turning from the main road is located at postcode CM22 7QJ. The clubhouse is beside the river at the very end of a private single-track lane which runs behind Darlington's. Continue through the gates to the small private car park immediately beside the clubhouse
IMPORTANT: Follow the directions above rather than the ones given by GoogleMaps - despite what GoogleMaps thinks, there really is no public footpath from Twyford Road / Twyfordbury Lane and you cannot get across the river from there.
If you will need an accessible parking space for your visit, please do ask for one to be reserved for you. You may wish to review the Access Checklist for our premises.
