Toegang
Leave M5 at junction 13. Various turnings east between Stroud and Nailsworth give access. Rodborough is just one mile from Stroud station. Click on a P in the map to get directions to that point. The circular walks shown are each about 3 km. Motorists please note 40mph speed limit, due to the ubiquitous cattle roaming free.
