Just a little update from today!

FOUND - blue dog shoe - left at the dog water station/dog bin on top Forge field.

RABBIT INFO - A local resident found 3 newly deceased rabbits. They said they have never known it as bad in the area. Probably due to recent land clearing and disturbing their homes. Please be careful when walking your dogs as the whole area is scattered with rabbit holes and could cause injury if not careful.

Also the rabbits appear to have eye disease. A common thing at this time of year we are told.

It has been reported that there are now ducklings on the pond and so here is just a polite reminder to drive safely through Milton, as they are quite often crossing the road on route to the pond and waddling around by the road foraging.

Also, if you have dogs, exercising caution and keeping them on the lead too if they are likely to take a shine to the new additions.

Many Thanks 🤩

💥 Temporary barriers 💥

We have had confirmation that the new barrier that has been sited today is TEMPORARY as the previous ones kept blowing down the banking.

The highways are still looking to replace like for like, in keeping with the area.

Thank you! 🦆
