Practicalities
Residential displays have no facilities of their own — no parking, no toilets, nowhere to warm up — so it is worth knowing what is around. Within about three miles of the Firestone cluster, OpenStreetMap maps 1 public car park and 2 public toilets. Only 4 cafés or takeaways nearby, so bring a flask if you want one.
typically late Nov – early Jan (check before visiting) · typically dusk – 10 PM
