Apparently, the playing field is now for the sole use of the Academy and is surrounded by a 3m high steel mesh fence. Visited on a Sunday & access gates padlocked. May be possible to gain access when the school is open. Unticked. | gerrybowes | 03/09/2023 |

From the ne end of Kings Tamerton Rd with easy access to flat football pitch. | Barbara Singer | 04/02/2018 |
Parked in nearby road and took very short stroll to playing field, easily accessed via car park. High point seemed to be in north east corner of field ( OS spot height more in centre) but all fairly level. | Denise | 18/03/2017 |
NE corner of sports field behind houses S of King's Tamerton Road. Easy access. A group of youths watched us wih suspicion as we 'surveyed' the edge of the field. | RichardM | 18/03/2017 |
Public access from NE, Kings Tamerton Rd, hp at hedge junction in corner of public open space, opening in fence leads into playing field where the os spot height is located but pretty level and barely seems higher. Three early morning tumps - this is my final Plymouth UA Tump | RHW | 26/11/2016 |
Agree with PeterD on this one, Seems to be a definite HP to the W and outside the playing fields. | jonglew | 12/09/2016 |
To east of Trevithick Road, either in corner by hedge or a short distance further East in playing fields. Both areas visited with A. | PeterD | 21/06/2015 |
