Not local, but I'm sure someone can point you in the right direction (or just follow the crowd)!

Turn right when you get out of the station 15 mins walk from there just keep following your nose until you reach seven stars bridge over the canal turn right onto the towpath you will see the JJB clearly in your view.
You will see the JJB as you approach the station.
