4/8/09 AREA DRESSAGE

The Wharf, Leominster HR6 0DQ. The Wharf is situated roughly 1/2 mile north of Leominster on A49 towards Ludlow .

At the roundabout with a large petrol station and OK Diner follow the A49 north for approx 1/2 mile and the entrance to the field is on the left hand side just past 2 cottages. It would be safer for anyone approaching from the Ludlow direction to continue to the roundabout and go back to it. The access to the field is directly off A49.
