Continue on the A636 Denby Dale Road past Clarence Park, continuing straight over the roundabout at the Holmfield Arms. Bear left at the traffic lights, under the bridge until you reach a crossroads with traffic lights and the Toby Carvery on your left. Turn right at the lights into the Renewi HWRC site.
