Tiverton Swords 11th December Party

This is a general invite to all fencers in the area and their families, from any fencing club.

barnJoin the Tiverton Swords club at an idyllic hideaway in the woods for an evening of fun lasting into the night!

Nestled in the woods just southwest of Tiverton, this promises to be a highlight of the fencing calendar…

Younger fencers and families are very welcome – entertainment will be on hand.

WHEN Friday 11th December 2009
WHERE Timber House, Worthy Bridge Cross, Tiverton, EX168HL
START 7 pm onwards

Food and drink will be provided but we would be very grateful for any additions – especially homemade stuff!

Camping space (indoors and outdoors) is available for anyone wishing to do so.

Please email us to let us know numbers likely to attend. Hope to see you there!

Email: konigrot at hotmail.com (subject line: Party)

For those not confident about the directions, Ben will be driving a convoy from the Moorhayes Community Centre at 6:30pm. Until party time, Ben should be available on his house phone of 01884 233569. Please leave a message if he is asleep or otherwise engaged!

The party is up the dirt track opposite the Worthy Bridge Crossroads (in fact opposite the humpback bridge from which the junction takes its name). It does look like a dirt track, so be on the look out for a party sign/balloons etc. in the dark.

To get there from Tiverton, starting from the link-road roundabout:


View Larger Map

1. Head south on A396/Bolham Rd toward A396/Bolham Rd
Go through 1 roundabout
0.3 mi
2. At the roundabout, take the 2nd exit onto A396/Kennedy Way
Continue to follow A396
Go through 1 roundabout
0.4 mi
3. Turn right at B3137/Leat St
0.2 mi
4. Turn left at B3137/Longdrag Hill
1.0 mi
5. Turn left
1.1 mi
6. Sharp right - hairpin turn. This is at the top of the hill next to the '7 Crosses' crossroads.
1.2 mi
7 Follow the long road down into the valley (WESTWARD), over the small humpback bridge and river, and crossroads at the bottom and up the dirt track 1.0 m

If you DO have satnav, you can try navigating to Little Silver, Devon. There is a good chance you will be directed over Worthy Bridge on route! If you do end up in Little Silver, travel north/north east along the track until you reach the Worthy Bridge Crossroads - turn left up the dirt track with the Bridge on your right.

If this didn't convince you of our seclusion, only 02 mobile service seems to work in our valley - so you may well lose mobile reception on the approach. Our landline is 01884 233569, and mobile reception is regained at the top of the Seven Crosses Hill.
