Just had someone from the village joyfully announce that the council has decided to put No Overnighting signs up at the public car park on Cowbar Lane.
two points:
1. as it is being done by the council it could take forever.
2. no idea if it will also apply to the open land before the car park.

will let you know as soon as any formal action taken.
 
It would be interesting to know how they propose to do this. By a PSPO which requires formal local consultation? Or by a TRO? Or what? Who is the Council in question?

Two guesses. Scarborough bc albeit Whitby council may be the originators
 
I can see why some cottage owners would be happy because some recommend their guests to park here due to limited and expensive parking in village.

Yep. Those that don’t live here but try to decide how the village is run.

redcar & Cleveland - no idea how, only heard this from a person in the village.
 
Hmm. Hope they’re not planning anything for Skinningrove, there’s a nice little CP down by the sea.
 
Hopefully they won't have the signs up by next week as I'm hoping to stop there for a night. In case they do, where's the next best?

Thanks
 
sandsend or turn down the side of Whitby golf course, towards the sea. Quite a bit of ok parking down there but stop before you get to the disc zone.
 
Thanks, I have friends staying in a cottage near to Staithes so will try Cowbar first.
I'll report back if I stay / try to stay there.
 
I stopped over at Cowbar on Weds night. The car park was fairly empty when I got there at 3pm with a few cars and 2 or 3 motor homes. By 7pm it was mostly full with overnighters, although there was a bit of space left. A van was parked on the verge just up from the car park overnight, not sure why he decided to use the verge as there was some space when he arrived. In case the car park is full, there's a lay-by off of the main road where the Cowbar road joins the main road, thanks to phase3begins for that tip.
