More a petrol station than a regular Co-op shop - no cycle parking

Obstructive access to cycle parking on the edge of Penzance

Sheffield stands in a sensible location and a cycle hoop where there are unlikely to be many bikes.
Sheffield stand and an area for cycles with kickstands, which are not common in the UK, especially as it's risky not to lock onto a stand. Perhaps it's for a bike-sharing scheme, but I've not noticed this in Penzance yet. [but I have now

Break My Neck Lane - which turned out to be a perfectly normal paved Cornish road.
As promised, cycle parking at the new Penzance Heliport - more use for staff than passengers, I imagine.
The main gates of the National Trust's Trengwainton Gardens - all access now is via the car park, but wouldn't it be nice if pedestrians and cyclists could enter (and park) here?
