Beechenhurst to Speech House Link Path
 

With directional signs from either end, this path links Beechenhurst to the picnic site amongst the beautiful Speech House oaks. It allows access to the historical Speech House itself and to the Cyril Hart Arboretum but care is needed in crossing the public highway.

How to get there:

Beechenhurst to Speech House Link Path can be started from Beechenhurst Lodge in Forest Of Dean. Coleford is the nearest town or village.

Travelling from Coleford to Cinderford on the B4226, continue by the junction with the B4234 (Parkend to Lydbrook road) driving up the Speech House Road for 500m before turning left into Beechenhurst.
