Reaching us from the A40:

Overview of Cumnor
1) Turn off the A40 at Eynsham,
following signposts to the Toll bridge
(B4044)
2) Cross the Toll bridge and continue
down the B4044 into Farmoor
(watch out for the traffic camera as you enter
the 40 mph zone that effectively indicates that
you've entered Farmoor)
3) At the
mini-roundabout, turn right (down the B4017,
following signs to Cumnor).

Centre of Cumnor village
5) The B4017 becomes Cumnor High Street. Follow
this until you reach another
mini-roundabout.
6) Turn right at the
mini-roundabout down the Appleton Road, following
signs to Appleton.
7)
The road almost immediately bends round to the
left, past the duckpond and a garage (on the
right-hand side).
8) You then pass the Bear and Ragged
Staff pub (recommended!) on your
right, after which...
9) ... the road bends to
the right. Travel another 75 yards or so until
just before the road bends sharply to the left
again. On your right you will see a gateway and a
gravelled drive with a signpost for Cumnor
Closes. Congratulations, you've
arrived!
10) If you follow the bend round to
the left you will suddenly find yourself driving
out of the village, in which case - you've gone
too
far!
