847 new squares (4863 total)
43 x 43 max square (up from 40 x 40)
575 increase in max cluster (2560 total)

Hoping to increase the max square a bit further yet, 50 is probably the limit before I hit a big urban area that I'd rather not bother with (Nottingham). To do this I also need quite a few squares that have some 'off-roading' aspect to them so really need to wait until things dry up in the spring.

Happy square hunting to you all in 2020.

Nottingham isn't too bad to get to be fair. If you do head this way and you want some slow company I'm sure we could arrange a forum ride.

That's quite an easy one to get to. Just head down Southmoor Lane which is a paved road that eventually leads to a farm - there were no restricted access signs and it seemed to be just like any other country lane to me. Before you get too far (about 500m) take the turn on the left to the oil wells. This was fine as well as it's a service road (concreted or at least hard-packed ground IIRC). You need to go right up to the gate to claim the square but you could go beyond this and walk down the side of the compound if you felt the need to.

Top tips - don't smoke and watch out for slippery patches :laugh:
