The Mobile Library has seven stops in Lapworth, where it calls every three weeks. Residents are encouraged to make use of the service as it is currently under review and if use falls below a minimum the service could be withdrawn. Follow the link to get details about when it visits.
The Shakespeare Express, a steam railway excursion, operates during the summer months between Birmingham Snow Hill and Stratford Upon Avon, starting from Birmingham. Usually it goes to Stratford via the Earlswood (North Warwickshire) line and returns via the old Great Western line going through Lapworth. Here is a picture of it going through Lapworth hauled by the Rood Ashton Hall one fine September day. You can click on the picture to see it in more detail.
Crime in Lapworth You can see the local crime figures in the the Police crime figures map for Lapworth. Unfortunately they have removed the trend graphs, so it is harder to see if they are improving or getting worse.
Bus Timetables When is the next bus? Where does it go? Now you can find out on the Web. Warwick District Council have a web page of all bus services in the area, and you can search it for Lapworth bus services. The 520 to Stratford (Tuesdays & Fridays) gives you a couple of hours in the town. Enough to do a bit of shopping and go for a coffee.
