EVENT INFORMATION
Barnes Carr and The Birches is the SE portion of Tunstall Forest, in the East Suffolk Sandlings. This area has not been used for orienteering since 2006 and has been newly mapped for this event. It adjoins the Tunstall Forest (Viking) area and the Brown course will extend a little into that area. All other courses will be entirely on newly mapped terrain. The area has more interesting terrain than most East Anglian Forestry Commission plantations with a variety of water and relief features and some nice areas of deciduous woodland.
