Helen & I walked this on 10/02/21. Nice walk and easy to follow, but it took us 3h 40m of walking time – to do it in 3 hours you would have to be moving fairly quickly.
Did this as part of a group of 6 yesterday and the instructions worked fine. The path referenced in the first para (15m after building) is very indistinct now, but still works!
