The "paying for it" line is a bit Daily Mail though...

Oh really?
So me paying a fortune on Moday and being kept behind a rope then another fortune on Tuesday for a "no-touch" half an hour, then a boozy reveller turning up for free and spending 5 hours standing on the stones on Wednesday as a result of a £200,000 annual event subsidy is not something I should moan about?

Is that rather peculiar state of affairs based on Cecil Chubb's Deed of Gift or the unmentionable fact that said boozy reveller et al might kick off citing exclusive spiritual rights of access if asked to give a single penny?

I'm well aware we can't pick and choose how taxes are spent but the above is a particularly unjust juxtaposition I'd have thought.
