2.2. Areas defined by white stakes.

2.3 Bunker with a white stake within the boundary of the bunker may be treated as ground under repair (you may play from within the bunker as it lies or take a drop without penalty outside the bunker, nearest point of relief and one club length)  

 

3. Immovable Obstructions

3.1 The paths within the boundaries of the rotunda, the adjoining formed gardens and the rotunda itself are deemed to be one obstruction.

3.2 The greenkeepers compound is one obstruction, as is the pump compound.

 

4. Preferred Lies – Through the General Area – one club length
“A ball lying in the General Area may be lifted without penalty and cleaned. Before lifting the ball, the player must mark its position. Having lifted the ball, he must place it on a spot within one club length of and not nearer the hole than where it originally lay, that is not in a penalty area and not on a putting green. A player may place his ball only once, and it is in play when it has been placed. If the player fails to mark the position of the ball before lifting it, moves the ball-marker prior to putting the ball back into play or moves the ball in any other manner, such as rolling it with a club, he incurs a penalty of one stroke.
