Does anyone know what the posts on Greenham Common are, 18" high, in lines, some red-topped, some green-topped, around the runway area. Not in our regular doggie-walking area so they may have been there some time.

Thanks.

I think they marked areas to keep off of during the bird nesting season?

Ah yes, thanks Ron, I have some recollection of that now, I'm sure that's it. Though I liked the other answers. biggrin.gif

I misunderstood your dog walking comment, but yes, there are areas on the common that one is asked to avoid. It's possibly seasonal, but I'd thought there would have been information about it at the North Gate.

Not sure, don't usually go in that way.
