Stratford Greenway

The Greenway is part of the National Cycle Network, forming a five mile section of the West Midlands Cycle Route, which links Oxford to Derby via Birmingham. The Greenway is traffic free, but you will need to cross some minor roads along the way. Please remember that other cyclists, horseriders and walkers will be using the route and you should slow down as you approach them, and sound your bell if necessary.

Stratford Greenway is a permissive bridleway between Long Marston and Milcote and, other than two gates near to Seven Meadows and Milcote car parks, there are “horse boxes” constructed adjacent to the gates over which a bicycle can be lifted (they are about 250 mm high).

If you’ve been to visit Stratford Greenway recently, we’d love to hear your thoughts. Please take five minutes to complete our visitor feedback survey.

Using drones

Hobbyist – We do not authorise hobbyist drone flying in any of our parks or greenways. The reason for this is to protect wildlife including schedule 1 bird species, and ensure a safe experience for all visitors who enjoy our parks.
Commercial Operations – A pilot requires permission of the landowner (WCC) to take off and land the drone on their property. We only permit a CAA licensed pilot/company. Any requests must be in writing to the Parks Manager parks@warwickshire.gov.uk.
