Allowing your dog to worry sheep is an offence and in some circumstances farmers are legally entitled to shoot dogs that are endangering their sheep, so it is vital to keep your dog on a lead around livestock, even if you can generally trust it to come when you call. Cows with calves are very protective and have been known to cause serious injury and even death to dogs and their owners, so try and avoid going into fields where they are grazing. If you do encounter cows with their calves, avoid coming between them and keep dogs on leads, but release them if chased or threatened. For more information go to Gov.uk and search for the Countryside Code. As well as following the Countryside Code, it is important to take care when walking along cliffs and beaches especially if you are accompanied by dogs or children.

  • New Love for Milborne's Old Stag
    R e p o r t e80p where r sold News and Views from around the area Volume 10 Issue 2 February 2018 www.milbornestandrew.org.uk/reporter facebook.com/MilborneReporter New love for Milborne’s old stag See page 3 A slow start to the New Year at Village History Group A very few people managed to make the meeting in January, those who did thought that many, who regularly come, could still be on holiday or unwell. We hope for more people next meeting. At this meeting Linda shared files of information that she has discovered by researching various websites. She has census returns and information from other sources (including the Reporter) which will inform our collation of information. She has been researching books written about other villages which may inform how we structure a book should we choose that route. Linda has also discovered an interesting website which shows photos of old Fordington; www.millstreethousingsociety.co.uk. Could this inspire us to create a website? We also discussed joining the Dorset History Network again but concluded that as no members appear to have accessed it, we would not do so. The History Group asks those who come to pay a small subscription; there is now a healthy sum which we could use to pay for speakers. If anyone has any good ideas about subjects or presenters please let me know. The next meeting is 14th February at 7.30pm in The Royal Oak. Hopefully members who volunteered to write up information about specific buildings will be able to share these with the group.

  • Ibberton Millennium Book FINAL COPY.Pmd
    MILANE PEGGY STEVENS I have lived in Ibberton for 37 years and am very happy in my little bungalow. I have no transport, so a friend takes me shopping every three weeks or so, when I have a good stock- up. Medical prescriptions can be collected at the Shop-cum-Post Office at Okeford Fitzpaine, which is very handy, and I also avail myself of the services of a hairdresser who visits customers in their homes. I employ someone to keep the garden tidy, so, all in all, I manage very well considering I am 80 years old this year. I enjoy the peace and tranquillity of the village and I never want to leave Ibberton. I am very content here. OLD POST COTTAGE PRISCILLA HOUSTOUN I bought Old Post Cottage in 1969, five years before retirement, and used to drive down, every other Friday after work, for the weekend. I remember starting to sing as soon as I left Salisbury and, once I arrived at Ibberton, would leap out of the car and wander around outside to see what had come out over the past fortnight. Only then would I go indoors and settle myself down for the weekend. On the Monday morning I used to get up at 5am and leave at 6am for home at Windlesham in order to change into my working clothes and be at my desk by 9am. During the fortnight between visits, friends, relatives and members of my staff would come down for short visits and holidays. Then in 1974, I retired and have lived in Old Post Cottage happily ever since.
