How to get there....
Townsend Fisheries is approximately 15 minutes form Kidderminster or Bridgnorth and approximately 50 minutes from Birmingham. Take the A442, and turn into Alveley after the Royal Oak pub (if travelling from Kidderminster), or after The Squirrel pub (if you’re travelling from Bridgnorth). Continue on Daddlebrook Road until you reach the top of the hill, and you see the Three Horseshoes pub on your right. Turn left and travel through the village, until the houses and bungalows stop. Keep going for a short distance and you will find us on left hand side – look out for our sign next to the gates. |
