Course Status
Last checked September 2023. Everything OK.
NB. Post N has been moved out of its nest of brambles – about 25m along its earthbank and at the top rather than the foot.
NB. 26/2/2021 … rotted post I has become a plaque on the fence end nearby.
Posts L, C, W, M, A may become overgrown in the summer.
It looks like the wooden sculptures along the paths from TC to Start2 are beginning to struggle – a couple have gone missing recently.

Start/Finish
The South Start is a 200m walk due West from the entrance by the junction of Broad Oak Rd and Greenleach Lane (SE), or a 200m walk due North from the entrance at the top of Sefton Drive (S).
