about 5 k's walking though the water race track along the bush up blackball creek and this is up in the middle of the bush on the side of a terrace.
Bit of an act to get into now and if its raining its like raiders of the lost ark getting to the step on the bank. Didn't make it last time I tried for that reason

Here's a pic of the bush its in and another pic of the much shorter round one. Legend has it the one was square and one was round as one was made by Cornish bricklayers and the other was made by Welsh brickies or something along those lines.
One day they will fall down or get knocked down by a tree which will be a shame.
