WALKERS in the habit of taking a shortcut down the side of a children’s nursery to get to Oban’s Esplanade are being told it is now a no-go zone.
People in the town have long used the path leading from the back of Corran Halls and Dunollie, through a gateway down into the grounds of the former Christchurch building, as a quick way of getting to the seafront but now it has to stop, says Jim Frew, who bought the old church three years ago and converted it into a nursery - investing around £400,000 in the project.
He said: ‘This has never been a right of way. A house belonging to the well-known McCaig family used to be on the site before the church was built here and they would not have wanted people cutting through the private grounds.
