Cattle Deaths Prompt Safety Warning
Three cows have died in collisions with traffic on Minchinhampton Common so far this grazing season. Their losses distressed farmers and prompted renewed calls for motorists to slow their speeds and take extra care, especially after dark. Around 400 cattle and a small group of horses were released onto the open National Trust pastures after the traditional annual Marking Day in mid-May. Marking Day is named after a former practice of marking, or tagging, the cows all together at Old Lodge.
