Date of visit 4.8.18
Facilities
Very nice WCs & café in Kelsey's farm shop, which offers the highest quality grub, as well as a 10% discount to parkrunners. I went for the scones as a post-race treat. The farm groceries also highly recommended.
Bikes can be locked to the playground railings near the start.
Bag drop?
yes, under the table by start/finish
Course profile/features
Undulating, bumpy & a few potholes.
Terrain a mix of grass, trail & some tarmac.
When I visited, there were parts of the course where the route wasn't entirely clear so I was racing to keep the runner ahead in sight.
Elevation 109 ft

Notes
The most scenic parkrun venue I've visited. The river Cray runs through it & up to the historic Five Arch bridge, with a lake beyond the bridge & picturesque weir under it; Wildfowl & excited dogs are in evidence.
Small field (108 finishers on date visited) offers the opportunity for a high finish placing if you're competitively inclined
