Hi guys. I fancy driving to Richmond Park to photograph deer and whatever else is there. I'll be driving from north london, so just under an hours journey. Where's the best or closest place to the deer that I can park for free?
Apparently there's a car park in a place called Broomfield Hill and one in a place called Pens Pond, and no doubt others. Monrhs ago on some other forum I was advised to get there about an hour before sunrise to get the best photos. And that the gates will be closed at that time which would be 4.30am and to park outside the gates and walk in. So is it actually ok to park outside the gates and not come back to a parking ticket?
Alternatively, if I don't get there super early but I turn up at one of the free car parks midweek say after 9am, is it easy to get a space?
