Access this from Ferrymead Bridge / Main Rd by turning onto Bridle Path Rd and IMMEDIATELY turn left onto St. Andrews Hill Rd and in 20m or so, right onto Ferrymead Terrace. This takes the “high road” some 10 – 20m above the narrow Bridle Path Rd, and eventually takes a gentle downward route to rejoin Bridle Path Rd where it is once again wide. Another local tip from my mate, John Steeds.

Be alert in getting onto Ferrymead Terrace as there are lights, slopes and roads aplenty, but generally not much traffic.
