RIDER RIGHTS
Hartlebury Common
"I definitely agree with what Steve McCarron
is saying.
It is very sad to see the devastation that is happening."
Says Carol Stockton
"I definitely agree with what Steve McCarron is saying,as a regular walker on the common it is very sad to see the devastation that is happening.
I have been involved in a stampede of cattle, the grazier that owns the cattle has said that he has the rights to shoot my dog, who is a very docile boxer.
I have contacted the police and they are saying that nothing can be done as Worcestershire County Council own the land.
The local riding school is also having problems with their fencing being broken down by the cattle,they cannot let children go hacking on the common any more as the risk of accidents is too high. I do miss seeing their smiling faces as they walk around on horse back.
We must all do as much as we can to stop this invasion of our common land."
