[QUOTE="Kev.C, post: 7568610, member: 158727"] Thanks classic hay. I know it does not look a lot but it’s now spread down best part of our 250 m boundary and I want to address it with facts to hand before it does get worse. Our barns are over 300 m appart so if they wanted to keep a muck heap I would have no problem with that as there would be no logical reason for it to be behind my barn 300 m from their stables. I think they just does not want to either pay to get rid of it or manage it properly hence dumping it in the boundary using the “fertiliser” for the trees as a convenience, I am well aware some people have little consideration for others if it’s saving them a few quid. We used to have horses hear and had a muck heap near our barn. The urine soaked shavings don’t rot down and smell lovely as you might know. Some people have gone off on a tangent with this, I posted for a bit of factually info so when I do speak with my neighbour if they are stubborn about it I can then produce the regs as such as a last resort. Children go down there as well as adults so just not nice having crap and flies so close when as a responsible horse owner could be managed much better. I have emailed Defra and Enviroment agency today just to ask for guidance. Thanks to all those who have offered some sensible advise. [/QUOTE]
