Parking
Parking is Free.
Parking address: Roxley Court Lane, off Wymondley Road, Willian, Letchworth, SG6 2UD.
Roxley Court Lane is a narrow lane that is also a dead-end road. The Manor Wood car park is at the bottom of the lane on the right-side.
Although the car park is not large we have never been there and discovered that it is too full to park. Parking here is free at the time of writing.

Place/s to Eat
We don't really know of anywhere very near to Willian Arboretum, but the Fox at Willian gastropub gets good reviews. Presumably it's not cheap, though.
