Bic Basher Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 It normally closes around Sunset. So today it's at 7.28pm. Although I believe they keep Old College Gate open slightly longer than the rest.

ianr Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 > It normally closes around Sunset. So today it's at 7.28pm.Do the opening and closing times shown on the boards near the park entrances not apply then?

Gidget Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 The closing time stated on the Court Lane entrance is 5 pm. At ten past the gates were still open so who knows when it really closes.

Sue Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Usually in parks the gates are closed one at a time, because the same person does it, so they can't close them all at the stated closing time.

Sue Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Well if anybody is desperate to sort the matter out, the council will know. Assuming they still have a Parks Department.

Applespider Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 I suspect they work shifts in the Park (at least in the summer) and sometimes it seems to depend on who it is as to when the gates shut. Sometimes, they are bang on time and other times substantially later. In the summer, I cut through the park from the main gate to the farthest South Circular gate on the bike and occasionally wonder whether I might end up shut in. So I do always appreciate when they close the main 'in' gate before they start on their rounds to close the others. I can't wait for the lighter evenings - it's so much more pleasant cutting through the park than braving the South Circ.I'm struggling to remember if I read something here a while back about the same workers closing the gates in multiple parks (Peckham Rye and Dulwich) which might explain some of the delays. 3 hours does seem like a long time although there may have been some emergency that we're not aware of that easily explains it.
