You may find issue too is the drifting of snow, here (about 20 miles away, ) fields at 800ft (ie near Bringewood height) have quite a few deep drifts to 2 ft, with frozen snow exposed in other places now. I think Clee Hill will be clear for driving though as main roads in arae are being ploughed / gritted

Even meeting him for a session at Hopton on Sunday 8)
