HDC farm user survey: comment by Mon 27 Nov

Horsham District Council has launched a Farm User Survey for visitors to Chesworth Farm – as part of its preparation for the farm’s next management plan.

For more details and the survey, please follow the link to the HDC Chesworth Farm page or copy it into your browser: http://www.horsham.gov.uk/chesworthfarm. Please share this link to all the farm users you know.

The deadline for comments is Monday 27 November. We know you will think carefully about your answers. Your interest is much appreciated.

I just need to say the Lama lookout is very slippery when wet; it like walking on ice. Perhaps some chicken wire is needed.

#sharechesworthfarm: dog walkers are reminded of the Countryside Code: “When you take your dog into the outdoors, always ensure it does not disturb wildlife, farm animals, horses or other people by keeping it under effective control.” More details can be found at Countryside Code

Horse-riders and cyclists please keep to the bridleways. These cross the site E-W or N-S. If you are on a diagonal field path, you are definitely not on the right track.
