After some confusion as to when it would finally happen, parking charges in the park will begin on Monday 24th February.
The cost is £2 per hour, payable only by using the app PayByPhone (this is straightforward to use, requiring once-only registration).

Although we were disappointed that the Council did not adopt our suggestions of concessions and certain free times, we were assured that there will be a review after one year. It’s important therefore that you let the Council know – or we will happily pass on – your comments on use of the car park in practice.
