Car Park I haven't done for years, as the last time I was there it took me an hour to get out and another half hour before I was on the A38 heading home.
The walk from the station is 20 - 30 minutes tops and all up hill except for the walk down to Pennycomequick Roundabout.
Exit from the station and turn right down the hill to Pennycomequick Roundabout. Turn right at the roundabout into Central Park Avenue then first left up Wake Street. At the top of Wake Street walk onto Central Park itself. Carry on up the grassy bank until you meet the tarmac path then bare right. The path takes you directly to Home Park.
On the way back, run like the wind and you can be back at the station in less than 15 minutes.
As for safe, do you mean safe from tumbling down the grassy slope on the run back, or safe from the Central Park Element waiting in ambush ?
If you run down that grassy bank when it's wet then you will certainly go arse over elbow. As for the CPE, I've never been a member, and in any case, I've always had my Garg colours on. :Oops:
