NOTES
The views sequence follows the main picture (south face, NOT west face, as English Heritage have it described), and then we move to the Church Farm track (which leads from Mapperton walker path) with north face shots of vicarage. Emerging onto the B3092, opposite All Saints, we peer down the Mere road to the vicarage entrance drive (on right), located at the traffic calming road narrowing. Then looking back from vicarage drive.
