Dogging Sites in the UK

Each guide covers one area: the car parks, picnic sites, lay-bys and walk-in spots people use, how to find them, and where to leave the car when the spot itself is a short walk away. Every spot has its own map, so you can see exactly where you are heading before you set off.
