Shakespeare Birthplace Trust

Stratford-upon-Avon is geographically located in the historic heart of England. It is easy to reach from London, the Midlands and the North and is close to the M40, M42 and M6 motorway networks.

The town is a short drive from Junction 15 of the M40 and is well sign posted on all major routes from Coventry, Birmingham, Oxford, Banbury, Worcester and Evesham. Car parking within the town centre is plentiful.

Regular, direct rail services operate from London (Chiltern Railways) and Birmingham (London Midland Railways) to Stratford-upon-Avon and the train station is a comfortable ten minute walk from the town centre.
