Location:

Black Robin Farm, South Downs

Details:

The Black Robin Farm venue is at Crapham Barn, two miles to the west of Eastbourne town centre on the road to East Dean. It is immediately to the west of the junction of the A259 and the B2103. Watch for the signs. The OS map reference is TV 578 978.

Black Robin is also about one mile north of Beachy Head and a visit to the trial can be combined with a visit to that local beauty spot. However if you take your dog, keep it close at hand, as the cliffs are very high and dangerous. A dog was sadly lost on a walk in 2006 trials, in a once in a lifetime accident.
