It's in the town centre - ish. How well do you know Ciren?

I hope this works

If you look at the map It's in Dyer street.

There are two options for parking. The easiest is probably the Waterloo car park. Coming from swindon take the second A419 Burford Rd Cirencester junction - the one AFTER the "cirencester industrial area/49th Regiment" turn off.

At sliproad roandabout exit turn left (1st exit towards Cirencester). Go down Buford Road past BP garage on left and continue to roundabout.

At roundabout continue straight on (2nd exit). At traffic lights (about 100 meters) you need to turn right into Waterloo. The car park is on the right, the back of Argos is on the left hand side.  Can't remember if Argos has a rear entrance, (oo er) But there is an alleyway along the side of Argos that allows you to get to the front of the shop (entrance).

Amended with details above.

Should say Argos does have its own small car park but if that is full then the Waterloo public car park is right over the road (pay and display)

Car park at the back is small and usually full. Mostly you can just pull up outside the front.

Yeah, but it was easier than directing him round the 1 way system. Which thinking about it isn't that difficult.

Not lunch, but go to the sweet shop next to the church. They sell ace retro sweets like blackjacks.

I'd recommend eating at the 12 Bells pub.

Best pub food I've ever had at very reasonable prices.

Landlord is a funny bugger, particularly on the first time of meeting (he remembers everyone) but as long as you order ale/cider he won't mind ya

The 12 bells serves great pints of mud and twigs real ale, might have the open fire going too.

Your directions are spot on, but I believe there is a road closure that may affect it somewhat, not sure which road is closed but some of the locals are well unhappy!
