Further evidence, were it needed, of SWT's cattle being addicted to following paths and the consequent deterioration of those paths. To cattle people are an important part of their lives and paths are where people walk.They had spent most of the day near to the gate on the west side of the site. In the afternoon we walked past them and then back through the pastures. As we were returning we realised they had decided to follow us taking almost our exact route. So much for their supposed benefit to the heathland vegetation. But then those who know how cattle behave cannot be surprised and surel SWT can't either.
