Hi Phil, The grid ref for Goring is SU604795,and the best area to look is near the railway viaduct,this is where the Club-tails emerge from the river,actually on the concrete walls sometimes. The grid ref for the place at Streatley,is SU583807,and is a national trust car-park called Lorden Chase. Finally the grid ref for Moor copse is SU634738,be carefull as it is only a small car-park. Good hunting, Regards Steve |
