Associated Text:
a lot of them are on very specific diets, and feeding them anything from outside their pens could make them seriously ill.

The correct answer is B because the scarecrow is in the corner of the car park in the north-western part of the site, which matches location B.

Associated Text:
the car park where you parked is over to the west, on the other side of the new barn. What you'll notice there as you arrive is our old wooden scarecrow, which has been on the farm since the nineteen twenties and is part of our heritage collection.

The correct answer is H because the maze is east of the main path after the fish pool and before the farmyard, which matches location H.

The correct answer is E because the bridge crosses the fish pool where the main path runs through it, which matches location E.

Associated Text:
That fish pool is one of the older features, and the small wooden bridge crosses it exactly where the main path runs through, which makes it a popular spot for photographs of the koi we keep down there.

The correct answer is I because the cafe is on the lower west-side path just above the picnic field, before the path reaches the outer wall, which matches location I.

Associated Text:
If you'd like a sit down and a cup of tea, the cafe has been set up in our restored Victorian schoolhouse. From near the farmyard, look over to the lower path on the west side, just above the picnic field; the cafe is along that path, before it reaches the outer wall.

The correct answer is F because the black barn is near the far end of the east side path before it reaches the eastern wall, which matches location F.
