2020 Season Public Running

Due to the Corona Virus Pandemic we will not be starting public Running at Easter.

How long this will last is beyond our control but if what is being advised by H.M. Government becomes fact it could be well into Summer before we can start for the year.

We will keep you informed of progress through this web site or our Facebook page and hope to see you all in the not too distant future.

Updates for members are on the members page

We are in the North West corner of Field |Place, beyond the Tennis Courts. I suggest that you use the first Car Park entrance on the Right after enetering Field Place having gone past the indoor bowling club on your left. Go through to the second part of the car park and from there there's a fairly direct footpath by the bowling greens on your left up to the footbridge access to the club house as ground level access to the track and clubhouse is closed off on public running days. However, there is a buggy park by our entrance and disabled acccess is provided should it be needed.
