Boothy Posted April 25, 2014 Author Share Posted April 25, 2014 Ladies and Gentlemen The expert instructions as promised by others but not forthcoming, so here goes After travelling through Matlock Bath on the A6 heading towards Derby, just after the big mill/ shopping palace a set of lights appear (Cromford lights) on a crossroad, turn left this is Mill Road. Follow Mill Road (by the old Mills/ waterways) until a left turn appears signposted Lea Bridge the road is called Lea Road, ip the road (under the Mill Bridge) and as you pass the houses on the right Pear Tree Farm will be on your left, just AFTER Pear Tree Farm is the road down to the yard, take it. Straight over the small bridge and follow the new gravel road until a crossroads appears after a few yards, straight across and onto the camping / parking field. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES USE THE OLD ACCESS VIA THE YARD OR THE FORD Postcode for farm is DE4 5JN Scrutineering and signing on/ registration will be open from 08.00 hours Sunday, driver briefing approx 09.30 and event start is planned for 10.00 hrs, IF everyone is ready and willing the start can come forward a few minutes, but only by agreement of all parties. As this is a working farm any animals must be kept on a lead and under control this includes family members if they are unruly... Watch out when travelling for the huge amount of bikes (and of course speed traps/police) that usually frequent the area in the summer months, it is if your not aware a stunning location very popular with visitors and tourists. Please, please, please bring a bag to remove your and any rubbish the event may create, we would like to return one day. Thanks and safe journey, Chris 07973 775045 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boothy Posted April 26, 2014 Author Share Posted April 26, 2014 Well signs were put out at around 4am, so I know they look good in the dark... From leaving the A6 its about a mile and a half to the site. Anyone in wagon will you park in the yard at the bottom due to field softening up yesterday with the obligatory monsoon on comp weekend, also those with trailers can you unload your motors on the bottom NEW lane then just drive them onto the field, just saves anyone sinking to bad, its only a very short walk, 50 yards or so. I've had a message about the brew wagon, THERE IS NOT ONE and the nearest Mc Dees is miles away (probably about 10 or so) .... The site is stunning following the water, you will love it...... See you there guys... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boothy Posted September 8, 2014 Author Share Posted September 8, 2014 Yes, its nots so difficult to find, I will put some details up soon, and its a good site to spectate.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boothy Posted September 8, 2014 Author Share Posted September 8, 2014 The post code WV16 5LS is for the Halfway House pub which is half a mile north of the site, you can see it on the streetmap above, this means we are half a mile south of the pub. I am told they do B&B if anyone wants it or there is also the Downs Inn which is approx one mile away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fogy1 Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 That's where we are staying in the Halfway Inn if anyone up for a drink in the bar in the evening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
