I do not know the area and I quite agree that the proposed car park
construction is hardly a promising sign but the average UK motorist
being what they are I suppose it prevents parking on grass
verges,private drives and the like.

Using another vehicle.

Good idea. I was thinking of using a bicycle when I go there. A 15 mile
