Parking Warden’s wood car park on Cleeve Common. From the A40 as you approach Cheltenham after Andoversford take the road signposted on the right to Whittington. Go past the church, at a T junction turn right, go through the village and take the first left. Follow this narrow road as far as it will go ignoring the turn to Brockhampton. At the end of the road is the car park (also known as West Down).
