As you go down the hill in to the outskirts of Bewdley you will pass the Hop Pole Pub, you can either turn down Hop pole Lane immediatly past the pub, or turn down the next lane in to Little lakes Lane and follow this lane until you get to the small shop then turn immediatly left in to Dry Mill Lane. after about half a mile the parking spaces are a short way up a track on your left, these parking spaces are at the start of the disused railway track which you follow to get to Lodge Hill Farm and Knowles coppice where the Pied Flycatchers nest.Most of the birds you mentioned can be found from the disused railway. there are a couple of footpaths down from the Railway track that cross Dowles Brook, look for Mandarin, Dipper and Wood Warbler here.Jackie</blockquote>
