Are they going to charge when you enter towns or cities with castles eg Rochester, Corfe, on the grounds that you can glimpse the castle 'for free' from anywhere in the town?
(in the case of most castles on hills, from anywhere 10 miles round) This could be a bit of a money maker.

Went to Stonehenge for the first time on Saturday - amazing structure and surroundings, but seems to me that the soul has somehow been sucked out of the place! The parking charge is up until 5pm daily. The swines!

£5 entrance fee to stand too far away from the stones to enjoy them... hmm... I think the next time I go is next summer for the Solstice - at least you can get the feel of the place then... I wouldn't mind paying if I got something in return. Like actually getting near the stones.
