Walking: You can walk to town by going out of the pedestrian side gate between both barns, down the lane and turn right across the green into Woolley Street.  You pass the George Pub and Woolley Grange Hotel.  Head across the roundabout at the bottom of Woolley Street to the left of the garage and down the hill into the town. If you turn right up the lane as you exit via the pedestrian gate, there is a footpath heading over the fields which can be very muddy in the winter.
