Yes I entirely agree I was up there 20 year ago in a grandstand , It was a bitter wind and you could only see 2 corners so lost track of what was going on. So far to walk to the next part too.

Castle combe is probably the best circuit in the country for vision and feeling comfortable and such fast exciting racing from all classes. 75% of the circuit viewable from just about anywhere around the edge. Volvo owners used to have a volvo day there once a year.
