Dist:0.3km north<br/>Protest camp trying to hold up the proposed Bilston By-pass. In woods on the edge of Bilston Glen. Camps like this were a common sight in the 1990's and helped prevent/delay several projects. With authoritarian rule and more and more laws being passed aimed at social control, they are becoming a rarer sight.
