Hi all.
Did a trip down Masson Cavern last night. There were lots of cars parked up by the Jug Holes layby, and also some up the farm track closer to Masson Quarry. Our group had official access via the show cave entrance, so when we arrived we didn't take the time to see who was parked up on Salters Lane - we were parking elsewhere.
Anyway, to cut to the chase, some d**k h**d has decided to add yet another proliferation of painted arrows in the place. We spotted several white paint arrows and some 'nice' bright pink paint splodges. The paint was absolutely fresh (wet/dripping) so could only have just been done.
So to whoever did this, can I politely request that if they are not capable of navigating round a place like Masson without the aid of painted arrows they should keep the F**K out of the place (and all other caves/mines) and take up a new hobby. Masson Cavern is a SSSI. Knowingly damaging a SSSI - which includes arrows/graffitti and mineral collecting - is a criminal offence.
And if anyone knows who the culprits are, feel free to pass on this message, preferably coupled with a good slap :spank: and the instructions to clean up the mess they've made.
