This will be along the old A66. Please use the single road entry from the A66 as described below, (at GR 290244). This will make car parking more manageable and also avoid competitors.
If approaching from the West, the entry is just after the A66 bridge past Keswick (GR 290244). Signed ‘Burns’. TAKE CARE crossing the A66.
From the East, ignore the first turn left just past Threlkeld (GR 315248). Carry on (~2.5km) to the next left turning at (GR 290244) Signed ‘Burns’.
From the South please use the B5322 (GR 318189) and continue to the A66. Turn left and follow above directions approaching from the East as above. This is to avoid competitors using part of the road. DO NOT approach from the turning part way along the B5322 at Wanthwaite.
Please follow the instructions of the car parking marshals as parking is at a premium. It would be helpful if visiting clubs let the Organiser know in advance if they will be using coaches or mini buses.
