Take the A46 from Bath towards Warminster. After a few miles you get to Claverton village (which is actually off to the right of the main road). The turning to the weir is on the left - steep downhill on narrow lane. I think it's called Ferry Lane, but I could be wrong
If you get to a sign for the American Museum then you've missed the turning
I used go to Bath University and then went out with someone from Bristol, driving along that road every weekend for 5½ years, and had no idea it was down there.
There's another weir at Limpley Stoke. Turn left off the A36 towards Bradford-on-Avon - you can get access to the Kennett & Avon canal here - and follow the road for a couple of miles. The road takes a sharp left under a railway bridge and then crosses the Avon. The weir is on the right (upstream) just behind the mill buildings.
