St Marthas Church/ National Trust Car Park.

St Marthas Hill Car Park is situated at the crest of the hill of a single lane road called Halfpenny Lane. The best way to approach it is to head towards Chilworth. As you come in to Chilworth from the west you will see a left hand turn in to Blacksmith Lane. If you follow that road until it bends right, it then becomes halfpenny lane. It is single lane and winds up the hill. As you come to the brow of the hill you will see a turn off for the NDW path, then a drive way and then the entrance to the car park on your right.
