Parking:
Car parking is available on the right hand side of the lane but not beyond the DNMAC sign. There is no parking in Lyme Park. Members are advised to obtain a parking ticket from the Committee, at no cost, in order to avoid any misunderstanding from the local residents which happens from time to time. There is no entrance through Lyme Park and no entrance through the Lyme Park railings. Please take care not to upset residents.

Environmental:
The picture below this text shows an example of the recent work done on the Disley Dam bank to stabilise the bank,making the peg more resistant to erosion.This is only one example of the work that has recently been undertaken by DNMAC members.

Due to its location and access, this is a very popular site and consequently under a lot of environmental pressure, please ensure that you treat it with respect.
