Twenty four hours ago you posted that there was no substance to this rumour 'whatsoever'. Wrongly as it turns out.
Now you seem to be under the impression, wrongly again, that it isn't used by the people of the town. It is, and neighbouring towns, and neighbouring counties, and from counties that aren't neighbouring.
I've spoken to visitors there who've travelled there from as far as North Wales and Dumfries and Galloway.
In the hundreds of times I've visited over the last forty odd years I've never been asked where I was from. Many people choose not to sign the guest book. So the fact is no one knows how many people visit, or where they're from.
More people still would visit, from near and far, in my opinion, if the people in charge of the curatorship were more dynamic and imaginative, and not so half-wittedly parochial, but that's another gripe, and not what this thead's about.
