Hi all,
I'm a new member to this site and did this walk and the Three Green Knights trail recently. The directions were pretty straight forward and I had an enjoyable walk in the sunshine.
I'd like to report however that car parking is no longer available at Oswald House as stated, and that a new car park some 400m along the road has been provided.
Having spoken to some locals I'm not assured of the safety of said car park given its isolated position, having been told that there had been a number of car break ins in last few months.
There's enough space at the now locked gates to Oswald House for about five cars, that's where I 'd suggest you park.

Moderator: We've updated the route description since this report; what was the new car park appears to have been locked for a long time. The route now starts from outside the gates as suggested.
