Leave Ludlow on the old trunk road, over the Ludford Bridge, Turn right (WIGMORE ROAD) towards the Whitcliffe at the Charlton Arms pub and follow road up and around the town. You will pass a large main forestry commission lay-by and also pass the small car park on your right. A further 0.6 miles you will see a signpost 'Hazel Coppice', keep going. Another 0.4 miles, there is a large car park with sign saying 'VINNALS' this is on your left and is obvious but takes you by surprise.

Location 1: This is a small stream with short banks. Please note that since the Shropshire Geological guide was published, the forestry commission has moved all the footpaths and colours around. Therefore, if it happened once, it can happen again. However the easiest way to find the location should this occur, is to look for the deepest part of the forest....lower than car park level, if you go up, you have gone wrong, you need to come down!

From the car park, you will notice a map and signpost 'Vinnals Car Park' DO NOT go past this sign, instead immediately as you enter the car park, through the Height Barrier you will notice a small short trackway to your left. The last time Vinnals was visited, it had a white signpost saying 'All Ability Walk' and is also mentioned on the car park map as the 'White Dotted Line'. This is a white track that winds down and around a wooded area, veering back right past a large pond. Keep following this track and it will start to climb uphill again. Shortly afterwards you will notice a small signpost saying 'Geological Stop 4' at this point you would have probably already notice a small stream and banks where evidence of fossil hunters is obvious.

Location 2: From the car park, this time go ahead, past the Signpost saying 'Vinnals Car Park' and Map' up the large track way, going uphill, you will pass a couple of tracks turning off with 'White Band Markers' and at the top you will notice that a 'Green Band Track is to the left and the main track veers right continuing uphill with a 'Green & White Band Marker', at this point turn left at the first 'Green Marker' (If you pass a Green and White Marker, you have gone too far). Shortly afterwards the Green Marker Track turns off up a very steep and narrow track, IQNORE this and continue going along the wide track, the exposures are on the right hand side, there are two of them which are slightly overgrown. This is location 2.
