Don't forget, as if anyone on this forum should need reminding, that NGS is also the venue for the Society AGM!

Hi Mick - I presume there'll be a courtesy bus from and to Winchester?

According to the website, tere isn't a dedicated vintage bus running this year, but the Stagecoach Winchester 07 goes from the station to Sparsholt

The bus doesn't go direct from the station, you need to walk down to City Road (Stop R), as shown here:

The Sparsholt bus goes up the hill TOWARDS the station, so walking from the station, you need Stop R on the RIGHT handside of the road.
