Doynton Village Hall, Toghill Lane, Doynton. Please park in the bottom corner as it is Community Cafe day for the villagers. We have been given permission to use the car park. A small voluntary contribution towards the cost of parking would be welcome; please speak to walk leader on the day. A few traffic trips! 'Getting There': Traffic tail backs have been reported on the Wellsway going into Keynsham. If that would be your usual route try driving to Weston, Bath, then up to Lansdown, turn left and drive to Wick. 'Lanes to Doynton' Avoid taking Culleysgate Lane at the bottom of Tog Hill, (little more than a cart track!) Best road to Doynton is Bury Lane accessible from Wick and opposite Bath Road.
