Any idea on the camp layout for the event? I myself have not been to an event at Bath, but my partner did at the end of the season last year and she told me that the civilians camped at the end of the woods to the near end of the car park, and John H had told us to camp in the same place, would this still be the case? As I would be arriving with my partner late afternoon/ early evening on the Friday and I did not want to set up in the wrong place and ruin any pre-arranged set up for the camp.

Ok, Thought I would give you guys some warning about the current situation around the American museum in Bath. I went there today with my partner, but when we were less than 10 minutes away we found that the roads in the area were closed! The A36 is closed at Limpley Stoke the AO36 at Limply and the B3108 to Winsley with no access to Limpley Stoke and the Road is closed at Monkton Claverton with no through route and the A036 is closed with no through road to Bath/Warminster for the next 12 weeks from the 31^st of March - phew! That was a long list! But basically in a nut shell what I am trying to say is that there is only one road that gets to the museum and it took 40 minutes for us to find it and even then it was by mistake! So I would suggest giving yourself extra time on your journey, and if you're using satnav forget it!

As for the current location - I hope it improves by May!

My partner showed me where the camp was last time and well…there may be some problems! There is a shed covered with blue tarpaulin right next to the camping area (really authentic ) which I can only assume was covering some sort of sewage works from the smell! And there is also some work going on in the small staff car park that I was told we could use to unload our kit next to the camping area, so there is about 6 spaces used up so parking at the event may be a problem, unless we unload at the bottom car park then the museum will hopefully let us park in the top car park at night.

Just thought I would give you all some warning!

See you soon at the event!

Ok that's sounds more hopeful! Maybe they had put manure on the gardens when I was there on Saturday....as there was a 'aroma' around the blue tarpaulin area! but glad that is no longer a threat.

Just one quick question - unloading kit, can we drive straight down to the staff car park? As my partner told me that the guy at the main entrance can get slightly territorial about the grounds, and I don't want to anger anyone by driving straight down the side road past the main house and into to the staff car park if that's not alright with the organisers.
