New gate at Sandy Lane park 002

 

Wonder why that stretch of fence was removed and replaced by a gate?

I wouldn't be surprised if it was a first step in a possible development on the lower fields of some sort, say houses. The contractors can all park in the car park and wonder on to site. The gates also wide enough for site vehicles to go through. Who knows what developemnts will come next and where. Thank for the pic.

Or for TDC  grounds maintenance vehicles to get through, whilst prohibiting entry for Travellers?

What does this gate prohibit travellers from doing? It certainly does not prohibit then from parking on the football pitches nor from gaining access to the car park. To access the pitches all they have to do is drive on to the fields from the road and to get in the car park they just have to drive through the main gate like everyone else.  MC I think you may be under estimating the intellect of todays travellers! As far as a padlock or gate is concerned, they may as well be made from smoke if you think it would thwart our travelling friends.

Travellers have a new site being built for them in a lovely woodland situation in Haldon Forest.

@Beezlebub2000-Flitflot - yes, and i wonder who is paying for that,  retorical! a prime example of why this country is in such a dire pile of rear end waste. while those in charge of governing it pay their family members up to £50 k a pop to sharpen their pencils, so to speak. even the scots have had enough of us and that's really scraping the bottom of the sporon.
