Rattlesden & Buxhall 60 Minute Score Course

This course is situated between the villages of Rattlesden & Buxhall, which lie to the east of Stowmarket.

The marked Start/Finish point is next to the Brewers Arms; there is a small amount of parking adjacent to the road. You can, of course, start at any point on the course, but you'll need to plan your route so that you return to the same point at the end in order to be given a time & point score. You'll receive points for each control you visit, & have them deducted if you're over the time allowed. The whole course is quite long, so it's best to plan how many controls you're likely to be able to reach at your normal pace to avoid incurring too many penalties!
