Starting from - Meet at the Riverside Car Park. Approaching Wallingford through Crowmarsh Gifford the car park is accessed by turning right into Stephen's Field, just BEFORE the bridge. Look for the car park sign on the left.
Parking is now £4 or you can park for free on The Street. Use this option in case the car park is flooded which can happen at this time of year and we'll meet at the top of the ramp that leads from the car park up to the bridge.
