Where To Watch
The Hill
Perhaps the ultimate place to watch the Woolsack Races is on Gumstool
Hill, along the course of the race. However, the hill is steep, and perhaps
not ideal for pushchairs. But if you can position yourself on the corner of
the hill, you should be able to view most of the course.
The Start/Finish
The start of the race is at the top of the hill, at the Crown Inn.
Watching from here, you will be able to see the competitors begin their
race, and return to the finish looking slightly worse than when they began!
Unfortunately, there isn't much space at the top of the hill, so it could be
a bit cramped.
The Halfway Point
Here is the largest spectating area. You can see the bottom of the hill
and the halfway line, close to the Royal Oak. The Millennium Green has
plenty of space, and you can always watch from the road above the halfway
point, with a good view of the course.
But...
Wherever you are, you can hear the races thanks to the commentary team
providing all spectators with their expertise from their position on the
scaffolding and at the halfway point. |
