As usual Cattle and Sheep are now on the Meadow doing the 'aftermath' grazing. As you will see from the temporary signs, the Countryside and Rights of Way Act requires that dogs should be on leads near livestock. But please note that there have been at least two recent incidents where the cattle have 'hassled' walkers - this is being investigated and new signs may be displayed. In the meantime, especially if you are with a dog, KEEP WELL AWAY FROM THE CATTLE. Also note that, if you are with a dog and are in danger of being trampled, the advice is to let the dog free.
If you are intimidated by the cattle please let us know by emailing portholme@gmail.com.
PS Once again, apologies for lack of activity on this site!
