It does not matter to us who owns the common and in fact it is illegal for anyone to own it. You can only register an interest. This is subject to a whole succession of acts. The council only has the right to maintain it and maintain free and unhindered access. I do not want to say too much here, just to say the route or information you have presented is somewhat behind were we are now in terms of our progress to see disclosure as it is called.

1955, 1986. these are the times that sssi was awarded. On both occaisions the three plantations at the centre of the common were present as were a significant number of the trees that have been cut down. Why are these formeley protected trees being felled?

Grazing livestock on previously protected sensetive  areas. grazing and walking over iron age archaeology, etc etc.

Why cant you see that this is a commercial enterprise.
