Bus stop, Ardens Grafton
Service 212 operated by Welcombe Garages calls here on Tuesdays and Fridays, according to the faded timetable. It's a circular route around the Avon valley west of Stratford. The photo gives a sense of how the village sits along a ridge. The wrought iron bar fencing is everywhere.
