The field sits on a slope, owners describe it as roughly a 1-in-10 gradient, which is steeper than it appears in photos. Many use this to tire their dogs out quickly by kicking balls downhill. The surface is grass, and it can get muddy after wet weather, so wellies or sturdy footwear are recommended. A few visitors mention hidden cracks or uneven patches in the turf, so watch your footing. The field offers lovely rural views across the Churchdown area.
