WHILE out with friends at the weekend the subject of the Dale Farm travellers came up, during the conversation I mentioned that I had heard a rumour that planning was being taken into consideration for travellers sites close to the White Horse Hill (Came Down Area), Sydling St Nicholas and Piddlehentride.

I cannot remember where I heard the rumour and I am sure I have been the subject of an early (very) April Fool joke – or have I ?

I have to say if this is true I look forward to putting my application forward to the planners to build a large property close to the White Horse Hill to enjoy the fantastic veiws and surrounding area that our travelling comunity will enjoy.
