Mill Common under the Countryside Stewardship Higher Tier Agreement Document, which provides the Parish Council with an annual payment from DEFRA, between HE Harris and Sons moved 4 young heifers onto the Common for the months of May - October.
The animals arrived on the common to the sound of the Cuckoo. The Buttercups had just started to flower. There was an abundance of Pussy Willow blossom. The Marsh Orchid was in flower, along with other wild flowers and small butterflies.
The cattle set about exploring their new home with gusto, before settling into their new surroundings.
