Access to Felmersham and
Radwell during Flooding |
Both Felmersham and
Radwell flood regularly. At these times there is no access to the
parish from the north or from the south.
To avoid
the floods when approaching from Bedford take the second
exit on the A6 Clapham bypass marked Oakley/Pavenham and follow the
signs to Pavenham. In Pavenham turn right at the road junction for
Felmersham.
If approaching on the A6 from the north, ignore all the
Felmersham and Radwell road signs on the A6. Continue to head south
passing through Milton Ernest. Leave the A6 immediately prior to
joining the dual carriageway of the Clapham bypass, the slip road is signposted Oakley/Clapham/Pavenham.
At the mini roundabout on the top of the hill turn right and follow
the Oakley and Pavenham signs. In Pavenham turn right at the
road junction for
Felmersham.
If visiting from the west take the Turvey - Carlton - Felmersham
road and not the Harold - Odell road. |
