I eventually found where this place is, but I challenge anyone using
the YSP web site (www.ysp.co.uk) to be able to point to a map where it
is straight away.

by road Less than 1 mile from M1 exit 38. Follow brown heritage road
signs to YSP - turn off at the first roundabout on the A637.

Doesnt seem to be that difficult.

Easy enough if you enter the postcode (which is on the website) into
AutoRoute (or Royal Mail address finder and click on view map...)

Nowhere useful on website, granted.

Too artistic to be practical, innit?

It says its at West Bretton on the home page.

Surprisingly, MSAutoroute finds a West Bretton about a mile from M1J38 as
described in the Visit YSP section. Even more surprisingly, between the
village and the motorway junction is a red icon designating a tourist
attraction.

Is this some sort of attempt at viral marketing by Yorkshire Tourist Board?
Only you arent doing your reputation as miserly cunts any favours.

Excellent, can I have a copy of the map youve obviously got that shows
heritage signs on it.

Which part of using the YSP website didnt you understand?

That was my whole point, anywhere advertising itself as a tourist
attraction should have decent instructions on how to get there without
the potential customer having to resort to using other applications.

Miserly cunts seems about right, as they cant even be arsed to check
that the local map is correct (its got South at the top).

actually correct.
