Grid reference: SJ269239
Best postcode: SY10 8LU
What3Words: ///townhouse.paused.tornado
​​
Approaching from the south via the A483, take a left turn along the A495 at Llynclys crossroads. From the north turn right at the same point. If coming from the east take the A5 north from Shrewsbury, turning west along the B4396 towards Knockin at the end of the Nesscliffe bypass dual carriageway. At the junction with the A483 take the A495 straight ahead. This is a dangerous junction so take great care.
Follow the A495 for 1km. After the road bends left, just after the Porth-y-Waen village sign, take the left turn immediately after the village hall and immediately before Chadd’s garage, with the Lime Kiln pub a few metres ahead on the right. Down the lane, the car park is on the right through a gate after 50m before reaching the old railway line.
​
Do not rely on the postcode to guide you to the exact meeting point for a foray. Postcodes in rural areas often cover a large area. The OS grid reference is more precise and unchanging. What3Words is also more precise, and the detailed instructions should also help to pinpoint the location.
​
Beginners are welcome at all forays.

Please read the Foray Risk Assessment before attending. It is advisable to confirm with the leader that the foray is taking place, as on extremely rare occasions forays have had to be changed at short notice. Please email the Secretary for more details.
