Leave the M4 heading south on the A33 (sign posted to Basingstoke).
At the first roundabout, turn left (Signposted to Three Mile Cross & Spencers Wood) and follow the road round to the right (past two garages on the right) to a mini-roundabout.
Turn left into Church Lane (sign posted to Ryeish Green, Shinfield, Arborfield & Wokingham). Follow this road for about a mile (following the M4 motorway on your left, then through a series of bends until you come to a T-junction.
Turn right onto the A327 towards Farnborough and Arbofield (40MPH) and follow it down, past a garage on the left, to a roundabout with two exits.
Take the left exit (still 327) towards Arborfield, Barkham and Wokingham and proceed along this road until you reach the 30MPH speed limit as you enter Arborfield. There is a cross-roads (with a pub on the right), immediately followed by a roundabout.
Fork left into School road towards Barkham and Wokingham. (There is a 20MPH section and traffic calming measures where the road passes a primary school). Follow this road to a T-junction at the end and turn left into B3349 (Langley Common Road) towards Wokingham.
Continue along this road (which becomes Barkham Road) for about a quarter of a mile taking care as you pass through a narrow double bend over a small bridge (where you should give way to oncoming traffic) and then, as you come round a bend, watch for a mini-roundabout with the Bull Inn pub on the right.
Turn right into Barkham Street (signposted to Finchampstead 3 miles) and follow this road for about a mile. The road twists a bit and beware, there is a severe bend to the left, with a turning off to the right. Continue round the bend to the left and follow the road until you come to a residential area and then a mini-roundabout.
Continue straight on over the mini-roundabout and proceed to a proper roundabout. (It's all roundabouts in this area).
Turn right at the roundabout and proceed for a couple of hundred yards to a double mini-roundabout. There is a garage between two roads opposite you (slightly to the right) and some shops (including a "Fish & Chip" shop) to the right of the first mini-roundabout.
Turn left at this first mini-roundabout into Nine Mile Ride. (now you are in the same road as the band room). Follow this road for about a mile until you come to another double mini-roundabout with the second one off-set to the right. (This is actually an off-set to the right of the "Nine Mile Ride" road).
Turn right at the first roundabout and left at the second roundabout (30MPH), still following Nine Mile Ride (sign posted to Bracknell and Bagshot). You'll be pleased to hear that that's the last of the roundabouts!!!
Continue along this road, over a hump-backed railway bridge, past some houses on the left and a mobile home site on the right. Now watch out for a small turning to the left (Signposted to the tennis courts) just as the road is about to rise. The access road to the school (Signposted - St Sebastian School) is the next turning left immediately after the turning to the tennis courts and just after the road starts to rise.
Turn left into the access road and as you enter, bear left into the Parish Centre car park. You can park in this car park if you wish, but most of the band members continue to the end of the car park and turn right into the school playground.
Beware!
Some new dark green gates have recently been installed across the entrance to the school playground. There is a sign saying no entry but just ignore that and carry on into the playground.
