Reminders

As you wade through the documentation you will constantly be reminded of two issues:

Clothing - Ecton Hill can be cold and wet, even in summer.  Make sure your party is properly equipped,  particularly with waterproof footwear with treaded soles - normal shoes and “fashion” trainers will not work.

Worksheets:  Make sure each visitor has a copy of the appropriate worksheets for the visit.
