Ponies in Burrator Arboretum

It was reported to us that there were some ponies in the Arboretum at Burrator reservoir, this area is managed by South West Lakes Trust and does not have ponies grazing on it. Our welfare officer paid the site a visit and found seven ponies in the area. She contacted SWLT who assured her that they weren't meant to be in the area, earlier in the month some fencing had been removed to allow works to be carried out. SWLT beleive the ponies entered the site then and became trapped when the new fencing was erected. Our welfare officer will work with SWLT to find the ponies owners and have them removed from the area and returned to their herd.
