Kitchen has a split door. So does ... I think it's Meston; Meston or Ball. And I've read of another recently but can't recall where ...

I think (but may be wrong) that junction has a split door, which is why I nominated it. No matter, this is one of huts with split doors....

In the interests of keeping the game moving…

This is on an island.

I've visited Lakes Ball and Meston huts but can't remember if either has a split door. I haven't been here but I'm well aware of the controversy around it. Given the reference to a trackless approach I'm thinking this might be Halls Hut at Lake Malbena. Although I can't see if it has a split door.

Thanks Nik. I'd like to think I might visit one day, independently.

I don't know if royalty has ever visited here, but one of them called into the pub in for a drink at my destination.
