• If you open gates to get through, close them behind
you.
• Do not cause damage to growing crops, fences, gates
or walls.
• Avoid disturbing livestock in fields. Some animals,
especially cattle, can be dangerous! If you cannot avoid
entering a field, please follow the boundary rather than
going across it. Seek an alternative route if possible.
• Keep dogs under close control and preferrably do
not take them on to recognised nature reserves, especially
during the breeding season (March to September approximately).
• Stick to footpaths as far as possible.
• Do not discard lighted materials such as cigarette
ends or matches and do not start any fires.
• Do not discard any rubbish and, even better, pick
up any you find. Take it away and dispose of it in a suitable
bin.
• Avoid rapid or sudden movement and try to make
the minimum of noise.
• Be patient, nature may come to you if you stay
still and quiet for long enough.
Nature is there to be enjoyed, let us keep our countryside
as clean and natural as we can.
