Yet another attempt to prevent access......the strip of car parking at the access road off the Medwyn Road that leads to West Linton golf club and onwards to Slipperfield & West Water Resv'r has been coned off to prevent parking. Don't know when this happened as today was my first trip out that way since the latest lockdown but it has the effect of preventing sensible access to the popular Garvald and Baddingsgill loop walks.
This parking area has been in existence for longer than I can remember and as far as I am aware has never caused any obstruction. In fact the cones take up more room than the cars did so quite why this has happened is beyond me. This has all the makings of an over-officious local authority who should be promoting access, not preventing it.
