Plans
Macronencer plans to get as close as possible for a 4pm meetup, and also a Leap geohash achievement. There is a footpath running across the field, but it doesn't go very close to the hash point, so an on-site decision about land type and access will be needed.
Further research has revealed that Bentley Wood is owned by a charitable trust and has an access policy, which is available via a link from this page. Since the hash point is in a field, I'm assuming that the prohibition on leaving the paths will not apply, as that is designed to protect the wildlife (it's actually a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI)). Of course, reaching the hash point will require care and/or permission from the landowner, and this could possibly end up as a CNR. Regardless, it will be an interesting walk. The weather is currently forecast to be dry or light drizzle, but with strongish winds, so I'm not going to stick my neck out and say "pleasant walk". I'm bringing warm clothes, waterproofs and good boots.
