Nature lovers in Kent are furious at a decision to introduce parking charges at a number of beauty spots across the county.
The cash-strapped Kent Wildlife Trust is set to charge drivers to park at its flagship reserves after suffering a huge financial hit during the pandemic.

Bosses have decided to introduce paid parking by mobile phone and will operate automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) technology.
The trust s main reserves and those with established car parks will be the first to introduce the new fees.
