Directions to Cheriton Fitzpaine!
28 Dec 2007

Meeting at 13:30 at ST DAVIDS STATION, Exeter!

Out of the station, turn LEFT on to COWLEY BRIDGE ROAD (left at the double roundabouts towards Crediton).

Follow that road for 7 miles until you get to Crediton then turn RIGHT into EAST STREET (one way street). Turn LEFT at the crossroads into MILL STREET.

Stay on this road for two miles, out of Crediton, until we hit Stockleigh Pomeroy and turn off LEFT at an open crossroads into COFFINTREE HILL.

Stay on this road until you get to a crossroads in Cheriton Fitzpaine, at which point turn RIGHT. Go out of the village, until you get to some lone houses on the right and turn off RIGHT at the crossroads straight afterwards...

The pitch is down this road on the RIGHT.

(Alternatively, turn off right before Lag Hill and the pitch is on the left up the nasty little track - a risky shortcut!)

Directions to Hatherleigh!
