POSTCODE NE38 9JD - Big stone gate opposite Forest Drive

The entrance we're using is off Bonemill Lane. It will be signposted. Please follow marshals instructions and have £4 ready for parking. Entrance on Bonemill Lane near Picktree, signposted Lambton Castle.
The route has been finalised and we're happy to report that the car parking is on hard standing, so we shouldn't have any vehicles stuck on fields.
Please see map below for car parking, tent city, toilets etc. The route takes in great views of the castle and estate and we hope you'll really enjoy the course.
REGISTRATION. In the NEHL tent near the finish.
TOILETS AND REFRESHMENTS. There are portable toilets available, please use them. Don't pee in the bushes next to the tents, parking, or the start-finish area. Our officials don't need to see that.

COURSE. Mostly woods. Hills.
There could be mud!
PLEASE DO NOT WARM UP ON THE COURSE. Use the next to tent city to warm up in (where the tents and cars are), it is massive. The course is very narrow in places, your club will be penalised if you warm up while events are taking place.
