Hi Roy - I'm often out there - the original visitors centre was moved some time 
back - as far as I am aware you can still get the key for the high tide roost 
hide from the new visitors centre - you can just call in there and after 
showing ID they will generally give you the keys 
I have to say its always disappointing at the roost nowadays - very few 
migratory waders - good for Chestnut Teal and a few other cormorants and herons 
and egrets - they also seem to congregate well away from the hide ( what's new 
with man made hides!!) However at times something more interesting does turn up 
so worth a look. 
The lake area at the old visitors centre and the car park area there are both 
good bird watching spots.
Regards
David Taylor

The new visitors centre is at 1 Whimbrel street
