But that's never going to happen, is it? EH aren't about to shell out that kind of dosh.
So it's a pointless exercise then. They may as well reinstaste the old chalk track which we all walked up when I was younger and just maintained it as and when. Works for the banks of the Great Circle. They can then turn their attention to the roof of the WKLB which has been worn away but nobody seems to care a fig about that!
That might be the only viable solution. Personally, I'd fence it off as discretely as possible and see if that reduces numbers down to a level where damage is negligible. If that doesn't work, then the only option is to live with the fact that people will climb the hill, and do whatever's possible to mitigate any potential damage - like putting a footpath up it.
How much would 24hr security cost a year, £60/£70k? (Complete guess)
If people were charged a small fee if they wanted to get up close to the hill, thats one possible solution.
Not necessarily a popular one, but does the hill need protection or not?
