N.B. The map scale for the score course is 1:12500. This means everywhere will be 25% further than you expect! The map scale for the line courses is the usual 1:10000.

Parking

There is parking on the streets near to the Square and Compasses pub. The pub cark itself is quite small, so please do not use that.
