Another inappropriate forestry sign, B8062 A stupid person placed, or ordered the placement of a forestry keep out sign on the B8062.  This is not the usual road closure sign, you will see those just about every time you go out, just unthinking following of instructions.  Needless to say there was no forestry work anywhere near although some trees were cut down on land to the left at one time - you can see the Tuley tubes of the new plantings.
