Every so often (it’s by no means a common occurrence), an air ambulance lands on Cinder Moor. Whilst it’s true that Cinder Moor was designated as a heliport in 1953 (in the city’s twenty year plan) it was re-designated as green space in 1973. So, one wonders what authority the air ambulance service has to be using the park as an overflow landing pad for helicopters. It’s interesting to see from the above photograph, just how small the ungrassed area of Cinder Moor really is.
