  • I've never had any interest in visiting National Trust properties, I'm very happy those buildings are being preserved but it's all fucking bollocks... Let's go walk around the house and gardens of an 18th century slaver/arms dealer/murderer... I'm obvs not middle class enough to be able to enjoy these things...

  • There are plenty of National Trust properties that aren't houses. They own vast chunks of land and I'm happy to pay something towards access and maintenance.

    Stonehenge for example is English Heritage but most of the surrounding landscape is NT. Large chunks of the South West Coast Path and the Lake District are NT owned.

    Generally when hiking over NT land I feel less like a nuisance compared to a typical farm. Better maintained fence/wall crossings for example.
