Transport links

Quarry Court is off Quarry Hill which is part of Watling Street. This was originally a major route through Tamworth before the modern A5 was created, and therefore has excellent links to major roads. A short drive east leads to the A5 with a junction at either side of a bridge giving great access to the M42 junction 10 and toward Tamworth town and the A38 in the west.

There is a regular bus service to Tamworth Town Centre located on from Watling Street, as well as a daily return service to Birmingham (X16). Eagle-eyed viewers will spot the bus stop located outside the front of the property. From Tamworth Town Centre, there are two main bus stations with services to many local destinations including Nuneaton, Lichfield, Sutton Coldfield, and Burton on Trent to name a few.

Roughly a mile to the west on Watling Street is found Wilnecote Railway Station offering a service to Birmingham New Street & Tamworth as part of the Cross-Country line which also leads to Nottingham & Derby. Tamworth Railway station offers commuting links to London, Liverpool, Manchester and even Glasgow.
