JOINING INSTRUCTIONS: Short Public Transport Walk: Lichfield City. Circular 4 miles. Map EX244. We meet at New Street Station for the Cross City Train currently scheduled to depart at 10.36 am but do check the timetable closer to the date to see if this is still the case. With a WM Travel Pass you will require a return ticket from Blake Street in addition to the Pass. Car parking in Lichfield city is difficult to find and is expensive, so please ignore earlier advice that this is an alternative means of travel- this is now a public transport walk as set out above.
