Step 3: Leave the station from Platform 1 either via the stairs or, for step-free access, via the car park to reach the A626 (Brabyns Brow).

Step 4: Turn right along the pavement of Brabyns Brow to cross the bridge over the train line.

Step 5: Straight after the bridge, turn right at a fingerpost. If the path is overgrown, continue along the road and turn right onto the towpath.
