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 Greeley cluster, OpenStreetMap maps 3 public car parks and 1 public toilet. There is no shortage of cafés and takeaways for a hot drink on the way round.
