| Dear oh dear, that's even worse than on my visit last year. Good cairns though. |

That's just a small fraction, too. Perhaps there are local issues with charges etc? Regardless, the Mam was saying why drive all the way down - presumably in a 4x4 since the track is so poor - when the stuff could just have well been dumped beside the main road? This suggests a mentality that such, er, 'people' believe no one would possibly come to places such as this in a million years. Truly moronic. As you and Carl will know only too well this problem is endemic in South Wales and I don't know what the answer is. Hidden cameras? Did we ever get responses from previous mails to the local authorities? |

It is dreadful. I walked here from Pontypridd and then dropped down to Caerphilly, probably saw enough fly tipping for a small landfill. There was a lot of 4x4 activity around when I was there. As well as matresses, etc, the worst was the litter in the big cairn at [[The Bryn]], complete with used hypodermic. I don't know if Carl heard anything back. I recently emailed Cardiff about the blocked footpath at that chambered cairn near Llantrisant, the only response I got was to be told it wasn't in their area (even though it is, according to the maps on their own website). |

Presumably too much of a challenge to forward the mail to colleagues in the right area? So they couldn't care less, in other words. Might be a good idea - if the Eds are OK with it - to have a central Forum thread to keep track of stuff such as this as no other bugger's going to look out for these places. |

That sounds like a great idea. I will chase the footpath one, been a bit busy recently but it's annoying. I found the same locked gates as you did. |
