There is a 'Castle Head Field Centre' sign :
Follow the track to the centre.
Google tells me it is 46 miles from M6 J31
(Salmesbury) to Castle Head and should take 50
minutes - but then it will be Friday rush-hour so
allow time for getting on the motorway (especially
if trying to get on at Broughton junction).

Getting There!
M6 to J36 then left onto A590
At first junction go left (”Barrow A590”)
At large roundabout go left (”Grange-over-Sands B5277”)
When you reach the 30 speed limit signs ...
... you take the next left immediately before the cottage (it looks likes their drive!)
DON’T turn too sharply - the first part of the junction (immediately after the ‘LINDALE’ sign) is a gateway into a field!
