Run the Move Mile!
Children of all ages can run the Mile however anyone under the age of 8 is encouraged to race in the family Mile which will take place first. We ask that any child under the age of 5yrs runs with a parent or guardian. Parents and guardians are welcome to run with push chairs and buggies, should you wish to, however they would need to start at the back of the field. The race is also wheelchair accessible.
The best way to get there if you use a smart phone is to download the Google Maps app.
Parking

Prestwold Hall is still a privately-owned house lived in by a descendant of Sir Christopher Packe and is not open to the general public. The house contains many interesting features including a considerable amount of marbled Italian plaster work, some fine 18th century English and European furniture and a large collection of family portraits from Sir Christopher Packe to the present day.
