There is a theory that not only was there a ford in Stratford where Clopton Bridge is now but there was also one about 2km up stream at Tiddington. This site is currently owned by a caravan park.

Route Of Road Beyond Tiddington Ford

If so it would bear truth to the thinking that after crossing the river hear then men would ascend the Welcombe Hills via the dug out roadways currently used by the Welcombe Hotel, but which are known to be ancient, round Welcombe Castle and currently known well-worn footpaths, to eventually join King’s Lane further north.
