Go from Bibury to Ablington and take the first right, follow this road for about 3 miles and you come to a large farm on the left. Park here,i f you cannot find anybody follow the lane through the farm boildings until you come to a small wood. There is a wicket gate here go through and you are on the Barrow. Enjoy.
