Plans to install cable cars at Cheddar Gorge have been opposed by the National Trust.

The organisation, which owns part of the land proposed to be used, says it would have a ‘damaging visual impact’ on the area.

The Gorge's management company Longleat Estates, who are behind the idea, say a recent public consultation showed parking, wildlife and the view were residents' biggest worries - but reckon two-thirds of responses were positive.
