Lost lanyard
A lanyard & whistle has been dropped on the footpath between Moreton in Marsh & Batsford Arboretum. The lanyard has sentimental value and the owner would like it returned. If you find the lanyard, please could you bring it to the Estate Office. Many thanks

Countryside Code
A new Countryside Code has been produced by Natural England. It outlines the best practices for visitors wishing to enjoy the countryside.
We hope everyone enjoys following the public footpaths which run through Batsford Estate. Please respect the beautiful countryside and livestock by keeping to the footpaths, keeping your dogs on a lead, taking your litter home and being kind and respectful.
We have noticed over the last few years, members of the public have taken to walking around the field margins. Please could we ask you to keep off the areas which are not designated footpaths. Field margins are left as a home for wildlife and insects. By walking or allowing your dogs on these areas, you are disturbing their natural habitat. Many of these areas are set aside as part of Natural England Environmental Schemes.
A new leaflet has been produced to assist your time in the countryside.

We will continue to follow the Government guidance and we will keep you all informed of any changes which are made. We will make any updates on our website, www.batsfordestate.co.uk. We hope you all stay safe and well. If you have any worries or difficulties please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

Footpath Closed
Footpath Closure – Wednesday 9th September.
The main footpath from Hospital Road, Moreton in Marsh passing the allotments through to Batsford Arboretum will be closed due to bridge repairs on Wednesday 9th September 2020 for approximately 1 week. There are no alternative routes in place. Please can we ask walkers to stick to other footpaths as walking around the field margins disturbs the wildlife. Thank you for your assistance during this period.

Batsford Estate has no control over the electricity. More information can be found on the website https://www.westernpower.co.uk/. If you click on live power cut maps and the area you live it will give you an update on the power situation and if a fault has been reported.
Update: Power disruption expected on Saturday 8th August between 12:00 and 17:00.
