Only unexpected changes (on a quick viewing):

- More of the foot of Pennards is staff camping

- Arcadia has a little less space

- Dairy Ground and Paines Ground have swapped names...

Arcadia has less, not more, space

[kaytee...]

and woodsies is now staff and hospitality camping? My plans have changed then

Ah yes. More space in Wicket Ground family camping, but they may not be of much interest if not a family.

Love that

Great news about Arcadia, it was a bit cramped around there last year at times.

What stage has moved in Silver Hayes? Wow?

[Alcatraz]

Slight re-config of Silver Hayes as well

I think The Gully might have moved over to where Sonic was, with Sonic moving further down. Seems like Silver Hayes will have more open space

Looks like the gully or blues

Including most notably a new access route direct into the middle of Silver Hayes Road.

I just spent 15 minutes making it, so I'm gonna post it, even though it's pretty much the same as @Brave Sir Robin's map.

2014 vs 2015 vs 2016

Excellent new cut through from Silver Hayes to get to the Pyramid.

Will hopefully stop the bottle neck at Other/Silver Hayes. Been getting bad for years.

Yes, especially in years of, err... inclement weather.

Every single bar has shifted slightly to the right.

Must be global warming. The giant polar bear did try to warn us.

It's pussy parlour that's moved isn't it?

I'm confused how the John Peel move is going to expand it/give it more room? Would seem more cramped if it's where I'm thinking and even further up the hill?

Higher up, so less quagmire & much better access to the top of the Pyramid field & via Lower Mead to Silver Hayes. It's a good improvement

[giantkatestacks]

It has a proper field now to spill out into, not just a road and camping.

 

That Silver Hayes rd is very interesting.

Except the Ridge & Furrow. Must be to ensure that all eFesters can still stagger to the Wednesday meet without (additional) confusion.

That was my initial reaction, but the problem with the previous layout wasn't the amount of room, so much as nobody would go round the other side. By putting the toilets on the far side, it looks as though they're trying to encourage more people to be naturally standing all round the tent.

But it does look more cramped.

Ah, and there goes one of the best things about the JP, the fact there was always loads of space to the top/right of the stage...
