Finally after all the years of visiting Feckenham I have got it..........there is always an issue with parking/access to the site and the Trust have been confusing the matter (in my eyes) by stating No Parking then when you get there it says you can park.
We all know there was some "trouble" a few years ago when Kingfishers caused mayhem with people filling up the lane and the trust said not to park there as they might be liable to repair bills......
I visited the other day and as I parked there was a trust Land Rover there with a chap called James who told me not to park in lane as there was a new No Parking sign on the entrance....I pointed out the notice in the hide and he said he would remove it......he had not later. He explained that the lane is PRIVATE and only the trust can use it for maintenance only ......I now had it.....
SO EVERYONE - DO NOT DRIVE CARS DOWN THE LANE - PARKING IN THE CAR PARK IS NOT THE ISSUE AS YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO BE THERE.
Please park elsewhere...there is free parking in the centre of the village.....but god help them if a mega turned up here....I know..not likely.

In all fairness Keith the Trust's website does make it explicit that parking is in the village only: http://www.worcswildlifetrust.co.uk/reserves/feckenham-wylde-moor

Just got around to sorting out the Water Rail snaps from before xmas.....it wanted to cross from the island to below the hide but knew I was in the hide and was scared.It got 1/2 way and doubled back ...went along the front of island then around to the landing deck and crossed there.
