Sheep Update

We’re thrilled to announce that the sheep are coming back to the meadows.

Around 100 ewes are scheduled to arrive on 2nd January 2025 and will stay with us until March. Just like previous years, they’ll start their visit in meadows two and three for the first few weeks, before moving to meadow one, where they’ll settle in for the remainder of their stay.

Once they’re here, we’ll share more details about their number and breed—stay tuned for that.

Now, a very important note for all dog owners: while the sheep are here, the meadows they occupy will be closed. Please ensure your dogs are kept under control at all times.

Let’s all work together to ensure this year’s visit is as peaceful and enjoyable as possible for everyone—including our woolly visitors! Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

As always, if you have any questions or would like to discuss any aspect of the reserves and their management, please contact members@fghw.org.uk
