Please look carefully at the map to see that the car-park is very close to the Thomas Coram Church of England School so look out for the turning on the right just before you get to the school. Velvet Lawn Recreation Ground. It is right at the top of Swing Gate Lane. If you get to the school you have just gone a little too far so need to turn round and turn very soon to the left.
