It was closed, due flooding, a couple of weeks ago. Not sure of it’s current status.

You've only got three days to go anywhere that isn't essential travel.

Hi Geoff

The trailer is still sitting over the back. It look like he is putting some wood chip down for when it re opens. It don’t look like the trailer as been repaired.

So you didn't read this bit then?

At this stage the viewing area will be closed to day visitors, until Government rules allow us to re-open.
