Course Information

45 minute score

Under 16s must be accompanied due to road crossings, as a condition of cover by British Orienteering insurance. Please be careful crossing and running along roads, the area is a large development with many dead ends and many houses, so there will be lots of parked cars and plenty driving around too. The biggest road crossed is Wishbone way, which is just into the estate and is a 30mph limit. Control sites are mainly lamp post numbers, with a few other features with multiple choice answers.
