Car parking
What 3 words for the Puttenham Common Top Car Park: ///amuses.sprint.wordplay. There is a 1.9m height barrier.
Toilets
There are no toilets at the event.
Dogs
Well-behaved dogs on a lead in the car park and through the Start please.
Terrain and map
An area of typical Surrey heathland with a mix of largely deciduous woodland and open areas of heather and grassland. The terrain is undulating with some steep slopes. There is bracken in many parts of the common, however this is starting to flatten and can be crossed with ease in most instances. There are many rabbit holes which should be avoided!
Scale 1:10000. Contour interval 5m. Map corrections 2022 by this event's planners, Richard and John Collyer. A4 overprinted on waterproof paper.
