North Yorkshire moors could also be protected by local societies, local people who love their own landscapes, I presume there are rangers for the National Parks on patrol, and maybe some 'strict' signage at the car parks or pull ins could address the problem of wanton ignorant behaviour......
Hi Moss,"you will be hung, drawn and quartered should you so much as move one stone away from a B/A cairn"!
I checked the Ramblers Assocation blurb and it does not seem to address any damage to scheduled monuments, but perhaps ramblers are well trained as a group.
In my opinion, 'Strict' signage may do more harm than good (the overbearing 'Hand Of Authority impacting on my 'me' time... ) Not far from Bere Alston (across on the wrong side of the Tamar ;) is Kit Hill. It is recognised as a good vantage point for us locals - and a few visitors - and it has an information board in EVERY car park and layby.
There's no easy answer. Mind you, 2 + 2 = 4 ; so perhaps there is.
