From last year, it's the kink in the fence from west car parks towards gate A. Though based on this years map, could extend much further into the car park this year

Interesting. That big chunk of extra camping space wasn't on the 2023 map originally (v1):

 

The current version (v1.3) looks like this:

 

There are some other changes too - e.g. the pathways in Pennards, and the gate to Worthy View is now called "Kings Hill Gate" instead of "Pennard Hill Gate".

They moved the crew camping from Pennards and made more space for it in that new extended bit.

Ah yes, that lighter green is crew camping. So this roughly restores Pennards to its pre-2010 form.

Stone seating in the Woodsies field and the first sign of the lighting posts going up in what I think is Spring Ground

Presumably the hill is named in keeping with King's Meadow (Sacred Space)...?

`it's not, or at least not a contemporary thing.

"King's Hill" above site has always been so named.

Yeah, I realised that right after I posted. Looks interesting.

Binge reading this thread after a couple of days away gets me more excited for the festival than anything else. Love it.

Assume this is partly to help address the crowds at the bottom of Pennards. There are now three ways off the bottom of it, via Arcadia junction, The Glade and now Other.

Does anyone know what this thing at the bottom of the screen is? There were a few fellas stood on it towards the end of the day yesterday but I haven't a clue what it is...

It's like on a construction site.  As soon as someone digs a hole in the ground it attracts a group of ten people to look down it and rub their chins.
