Public footpath across Race Course to Scout Scar Sunday morning and 39 cattle straddle the public footpath, via stile and cattle grid, via Bradleyfield Farm across Kendal Race Course. They've multiplied: from 25 to 39! That's a lot of cattle to walk through.
I meet Helen running home and she confirms the further footpath is clear of cattle, so I head over the milestone stile for Scout Scar. For eighteen years I've walked here carefree, in September enjoying the flocks of goldfinch that feed on thistles. Suddenly, I am wary and ill at ease.
