Taxing people to visit an area is not a great idea but it's just a different way of doing what local authorities do. I remember being in the Lake District with a pregnant Mrs Scunner - the visit being out of season (if there is such a thing there) with poor weather and not many people around at all. We drove here there and everywhere, finding viewpoints and place in the back of beyond. All these places have been found long before you discover them, there's nobody for miles but the pay & display machines are in place. There's no facilities, nothing that needs funding or maintaining, but someone, somewhere saw the opportunity to extract another quid from us all to look at the best of our own country.
