Hello everyone.
yesterday (Sunday 19th) I visited the site following a report of a broken gate. The gate was opposite Alexandra road and have been levered out of its kissing gate compartment so was swinging wide open. I fixed the gate and hopefully made it harder to do the same again but we will see. I also replaced the cattle on site sign which had been ripped off.
Whilst on site I found the cows (well 63 of them was all I could count)spread out in squares H30, H31, I30 and I31. They were all laying down and chewing the cudd underneath the oak trees and in the long grasses. It was a lovely site and more than made up for the fact that someone had vandalised our gate.
The bull was with the herd as was cow 145. She was still very lame but at l;east was happy to put her weight on the foot when standing still. We will continue to monitor the cow to ensure she continues to made a recovery as she is every day. If she starts to get worse then we will address the situation with the farmer again and decide what to do next.
