Bus Pass Bandit - Part Twenty: TANWORTH-IN-ARDEN

Continuing to clock up the Warwickshire miles - both via the bus network and on foot - the Bus Pass Bandit tackles Hockley Heath, Tanworth-in-Arden and Wood End on his twentieth trip...

His starting point is the Wharf Tavern in Hockley Heath on the northern section of the Stratford Canal.

A little something to slake one's thirst at the Wharf.

The red brick Church of St Thomas in Hockley Heath

Followed by Umberslade Baptist Church (above) and the old school building (below).


The Umberslade Obelisk is a Grade II listed monument close to the M40 motorway.

The tree-lined avenue and railway bridge approaching Tanworth-in-Arden.

A welcome stop at the Bell, a large pub on The Green in Tanworth-in-Arden.

The Bell comes up trumps for some Timothy Taylor's Landlord.

The Church of St Mary Magdalene is opposite the Bell in the village centre.

And a final stop at Wood End. A Warwickshire lad in the Warwickshire Lad!

The beer is from the Infinity Brewery and is now brewed on site.
