When heading through Winteringham, you enter the Village on Silver St. head up High Burgage, and turn left, out of the village on Cliff Rd. Also In East Butterwick, when turning left to Messingham, the junction is at the very southern end of the Village. There is another left, about halfway through, before you reach the pub "The Dog and Gun," ignore that left. Other than that, the route is pretty simple and well sign posted. |

(Called Sherwoods Cycles) Also there is a reasonably priced Cafe about 2 miles before you reach Messingham (at Messingham Sands) about 50 yards down a turn off to the left. (It's well sign posted) |
