A blue sign with a diagram showing a branch off the road ahead and the following text.
Forward destinations: The SOUTH WEST; Cheltenham; Gloucester [Solid triangle diversion symbol] .
Exit destinations: Evesham; A46; Tewkesbury; A438; .
Junction number: 9.
The A438 is a relatively minor road west from here, but as it continues west it gains in importance. If you choose to follow it your patience will be rewarded with visits to Ledbury, Hereford and Hay-on-Wye.
