WALKERS across the Ribble Valley are being warned to be vigilant throughout the traditional heather burning season. With access to heather moorland
now increased following the imple mentation of the Countryside and Right of Way Act, the Moorland
Association, has reminded members of the public to keep safe. Burning to improve food sources
for sheep, cattle and grouse, which started on October 1st, has been car ried out since the 1890s. I t is used to encourage fresh shoots of heather where it has grown old.
The lowest prices guaranteed This weekend
Lindsay Waddell, chairman of the National Gamekeepers’ Organisa tion moorland branch, said: “Only small patches are burnt so there is little danger to the public, but be aware that walk routes may be dis rupted by smoke between October 1st and April 15th.
Equally, despite the best planning,
wind directions can change and members of the public are advised
not to get too close.” The Moorland Visitors’ Code gives
further information for walkers heading for the hills. It can be found on
