THE idea of disfiguring the Malvern Hills with cable cars, and a huge cable car terminal on the top is, for any person who loves these hills, unthinkable and utterly inappropriate.

And the claim that it would attract an extra half-a-million visitors to Malvern is the best argument for not building it I've yet heard.

The Conservators have voted 20-0 against it, the law prohibits any building on the hills.

Those facts are surely enough to throw the idea out for ever.

Do the supporters of this mad project intend to lobby Parliament to get the law changed?

The town was not even allowed to replace the cafe, so what makes them think they would be allowed to build a huge structure on the hilltop?

There is already a roadway up to where the cafe was.

Vans should be allowed to take those unable to walk up the hills, or electric wheelchairs could make the trip.

Let us forget this nonsense, and leave our beloved hills alone for all to enjoy without desecrating them with modern excrescences.
