SatNav users - IMPORTANT NOTE

Satellite navigation systems typically give you what is perceived to be the quickest route. Often this assumes country lanes are as fast as main roads. This is not true.

If you are using a satellite navigation system to reach the Hawk Conservancy Trust, particularly using the postal code, you must ignore it if it directs you to leave the A303 before Sarson Lane. The Trust is accessed from the A303, and there is no other route that is simpler, faster or shorter. The Trust is well and clearly signposted from the A303 from both directions.

Some users of Satellite navigation systems have reported being sent through local lanes and villages resulting in a much more complex and slower journey than would have been the case, had they used the A303.
