livingstone visited on 26th Feb 2011 - their rating: Access: 3 I tried access to this site but was more than thoroughly discouraged by the farmer on who's land it is situated. Despite right to roam I was told that crops, cattle and swampy mud would prevent access. Further questioning about condition etc was met by blank stares. I intend to try again from a different direction.
