Car park at Trench Wood, near Sale Green The car park has been reduced in size, with the part furthest from the entrance blocked by a gate. This can be opened for genuine groups of visitors. It is hoped this will reduce the considerable problem of fly-tipping, probably by people with vans & pick-up trucks, who won't purchase a licence to tip at proper sites.  It is difficult to see why anyone else would fly-tip here, when there are so many proper disposal facilities in the larger towns.
