Saturday meet-up locations

The nearest village is Dunsfold, a mile away to the south-west; however, it seems to be a pretty small village. The point is in a small wood; streetmap.co.uk shows a path going to the exact point!

Near Horsham, in "Monk's Wood".

Between platforms 13 and 14 in Waterloo Station.
