The B4079 is a rural B-road close to the Gloucestershire town of Tewkesbury.
The road starts on the A435 to the north of the small village of Oxenton. Signage advises heavy vehicles to avoid our road, We head north - although the terrain is flat the road bends numerous times. The long, low mass of Bredon Hill can already be seen on the horizon; the end of the road is not far from that hill.
The B4079 skirts the edge of Pamington before crossing a stream and reaching a set of traffic lights where it crosses the A46 (former A438) at Aston Cross. On the far side of the crossroads the B4079 is straight for a short while before the bends start again and the county boundary is reached.
After passing Kinsham the road enters Bredon and reaches a T-junction, where the road TOTSOs left. Shortly afterwards it meets the B4080 where that road TOTSOs. The B4079 ends here.
