this leads in to Lincolns Inn Fields
you will have to check the car parking times very carefully as it is
controlled by Camden council who are not the motorists friend
Good luck and keep us informed


Isn't Lincoln's Inn Fields the place where most of the square is controlled
by Camden but one corner is by Westminster, both of whom operate different
parking restrictions?



Yes - the south side is in Westminster.

One of the other streets which confuses people is Charing Cross Road.
This is the boundary between Westminster and Camden - but what most
people don't realise is that the boundary runs not down the middle
but down the west kerb - so if you park on either side, you are in
Camden. Many people with Westminster parking permits have been caught
out by this.

(Incidentally there is a good reason for it which I know but it's
too boring to be told here)


Surely not... many of us read this group precisely for the inane
transport details...
