Help connect Beckford

Many Slow Ways have several route options. Some will be better than others, or good for different reasons.

Our goal is for each Slow Way to have at least one route that is verified and surveyed. To be verified – and get its snail badge – a route needs at least three positive reviews.

Give a hike and help get a for every one of Beckford’s Slow Ways.

Required diversion: Slow Way's initial route crosses the River Isbourne just west of the A46's river bridge at Sedgeberrow. (From Beckford to Evesham: keep going north on Cheltenham Road until over the river bridge, then turn left into a gap in the hedge opposite The Hollows).

This is an outline review of the first part of the route (about 4km from Bishops Cleeve to Gotherington). There is a small but significant error in the mapping shown on Slow Ways in the early part of this route: the map appears to show a right turn from Sandown Road into Nottingham Road and then a right turn to a path across to Sunrise Avenue. Nottingham Road is a dead end and there is no route out to Sunrise Avenue. The correct route is an earlier right turn from Sandown Road into Berwick Road and there is then a footpath through to Sunrise Road....
