PSA: The stone circles at Crofton Moor are getting trampled by hikers

I was up at Crofton Moor last Saturday and noticed a bunch of people walking right through the Bronze Age stone circles there. The ground is getting all rutted and muddy, and some of the smaller stones are actually getting kicked loose. There are no signs or ropes up to keep people on the paths. Has anyone else seen this or know if the local heritage group is doing anything about it?

Read something online about the local archaeology group planning a meeting next month to talk about trail erosion. They mentioned the path up from the parking area is the worst spot. Pretty sure they're trying to get some funding for barriers before the summer crowds show up.

WAIT they seriously don't have ANY ropes or signs up there yet? That's absolutely insane with summer coming. I figured someone would have at least put some temporary markers out by now.
