Terrain Description

Mostly roads, with a few hundred metres in forest, road shoes fine.

There are several crossings of the main roads through Windlesham, it's planned so any roads used have pavements on at least 1 side. Please take care crossing!! There are lots of parked cars obstructing views, and lots of cutting road corners on minor roads. Roads without pavements are marked as Out of Bounds, but you've taken a very bad route if you go this way. There is one crossable wall - this is above hip height for me, nimble runners can jump it. Going an alternative route is equal or very minor disadvantage (especially given the time to jump the wall, unless you're Colin Jackson).
