    Briefing Notes, 3/9/2016

    Winchester District Outing to Newbury and the Kennet Valley, Saturday 17th September 1016: Briefing Notes, 3/9/2016 Starting out from Winchester to Beenham: 30 miles, allow one hour. There are, of course, many ways of getting to Beenham: one is to proceed up the A34 as far as Whitchurch, turn off onto the B3400 for Whitchurch and on to Overton, where you turn left onto the B3051 for Kingsclere and continue towards Baughurst and Tadley. At Baughurst you join the A340, taking the second exit on the roundabout, and head towards Aldermaston and Reading. After about 5 miles you join the A4, where you take the third exit, for the A4 towards Reading. After about half a mile the road becomes a dual carriageway, and almost at once – opposite the Comfort Hotel – you turn left for Beenham. Halfway to the village there is a hard left bend followed by a hard right bend. As you come into the village there is a mini-roundabout, where you turn left. Just follow the road round – it makes no difference whether you stay on the main road – Back Lane – or cut through via Stoneyfield (on your left) – you will see the School on your right. You turn left before you reach the school, onto the narrow road towards St Mary’s Farm, and, just beyond, the church. Beenham: 09:15-10:00 a.m . 6 bells, Ground floor ring, tenor 9¾ cwt St Mary’s Church is in Church Lane, Beenham: Church Lane is opposite the School: its post code for SatNavs is RG7 5NN, its OS National Grid reference for map users or GPS devices is SU 590684.
