the main issue for me isn't the cost, but whether the revenue goes back into the national park and its facilities. i'm sure with the P&D car parks in the eastern peak, the money doesn't. i can't remember where i read/heard that (BMC meeting), but it's a big issue for me.
Anyway, we've finally exposed who Slacker's employers are.....
I'm also thinking that parking at Millers Dale gives quicker access to Two Tier when the additional driving (from Sheffield) and the Himalayan hill out is taken into account. If you were coming from Manchester then this might not be the case.

With respect to parking at the station opposite the green shed instead of at Wormhill the fee is £3.50 but a permit can be obtained for parking in the Peak at £30 per year for those outside the park and £15 within. Info here
It also says that income generated from car park permits / charges are used exclusively for the maintenance of National Park Authority owned properties.
