Hands Off Hartlebury Common

#481: Chris Ward - Who's benefit is it for?

The thing is Chris, there is very little that stands up to scrutiny. On the sign boards, the council also say.

"Tethered grazing has been stopped because of the risk to valuable flora and fauna"

So untethered grazing will be less of a threat then?

One of my motivations for objecting to this scheme and there are many, is there are contradictions, like this cattle issue  in all of their dictats.  We now have fresh red sand, which has been stable for thousands of years sucumbing to rain, wind and gravity  flowing down disintergrating strata. There has been more erosion in 6 months than there has been in recorded history.

If prehistoric people produced a landscape WCC aspires to and claims, deforested, then the archaeological site would not be here, niether most of the common that we see today.

The whole scheme is about money, it has nothing to do with the welfare of the common
