Crows Nest and Rabbit Hole in Park is one of my favourite little areas. My 'go to place' if I need a break from the crowds or at a loose end. Was nice nipping between the two and it was almost a secret area at the top of Park. Hopefully it's a well thought out move and not just plonking it somewhere. If I could choose, I'd put it up by JP / The Woods to help create more of an area up there. I can understand that, but I'd rather not have something on the polar opposite end of site that I might want to go to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a flying visit to the site yesterday and walked up to Arcadia field....from my pic all I can see is a generator and few bits. The build will start very soon I reckon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That much I do know but I don’t yet know where it will go. Won’t be long and the evidence will be there for all to see on the webcam (or my lunchtime walk ? ).

Yes. On the Sunday before you have to have a wristband. So depending on if I have that or not will be the point I can/ can’t go on site. however, it gets so busy in June that I don’t want to get in the way, so I tend to stay away once the fence is finished. Some time in May a sign goes up that asks you not to enter and then at the end of May/ beginning of June there is security on the site entrances so you can’t go on site via these roads.

Also we enjoyed walking the lanes and small roads around the perimeter of the site. The transformation from farmland to festival is amazing. Enjoy your lunchtime walk!

I love it when they cut it right up to the wire before they start laying down infrastructure in a field. Result is a nice straw layer which is more shower resistant and often drier to sit on and smells great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doug85 Posted April 23, 2019 Report Share Posted April 23, 2019 A few from our walk on site earlier today. No spoilers for anyone wanting stuff to stay secret as I think they are keeping the main build until once the fence is up. However they are digging some foundations down in the Arcadia field and after a quick chat with one of the construction guys all he would reveal was what they had planned was amazing and will need what they are putting in place which is exciting. Amazing to see the site starting to come to life now, theres not long left to wait!! ? 3 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't that middle photo the underground piano bar Certianly looks like it to me, before it gets covered and concealed, especially with the other photos you took nearby of the dragon?
