Attention – Dog Walkers

/in /by

It appears that a section of the Bridle Way from the High Street to Crick has been weed sprayed. We are uncertain as to who has carried out this as it was not the Parish Council. We have checked with Highways who have confirmed it was not them and they have checked with the landowner who has also confirmed it was not them. If you have witnessed anyone weed spraying in the area recently then please do let us know.

Unfortunately, we have had several reports of dogs becoming unwell and having sore paws. A vet has confirmed that this may be due to the weed spray.  Please do take extra care if you are walking your dogs on this bridleway.
