The owner of the land where cars have traditionally parked has recently objected to parking in this area due to instances of obstruction to tracks. The obvious track leading west is frequently used by large farm vehicles which need sufficient space to turn. Access is also required at all times to the less obvious green drive leading east.

After careful negotiation by access volunteers a parking ban has been avoided for the present, so long as the following arrangement is adhered to:

A maximum of three vehicles only, to be parked to the right of the existing noticeboard and in no way impeding the green lane which is also to the right of this sign.

Under normal circumstances ample alternative parking is available 900m back east along the road at Gollinglith Foot, at a layby beside a phone box -  54.224335, -1.766235 . Currently however the parking here is unavailable whilst forestry work is ongoing.

Thanks for sorting this out. Is there any chance of putting up a sign at the parking for those who don't see posts online?

Thank you for the info on this! Slipstones was my local for a long while and in my experience climbers were always pretty respectful with parking (probably due to posts like this informing them), issues seemed to come from hikers etc parking badly up there, it would definitely be worth putting a sign up with the landowners permission if at all possible!

RF app says: "PLEASE PARK WITH CONSIDERATION. About a dozen cars can be slotted in with care." 

Guess that will need changing now too.

This was proposed to the owner, but they've said they'll install one themselves instead.

Righto, thanks Jon.
