Manufacturing hits brick wall

Her fledgling Beachcomber Livery and Horse Holidays venture sits on land adjacent to the sand dunes that border Lindisfarne’s beaches, south of Berwick-upon-Tweed.

Helped by Katie Ross, Ms Gregon is tempting holiday makers with horses from across the UK to her family’s existing campsite next door with its access to miles of sandy beaches. “One of the visitors last year said she had never had her horse at a full gallop before,” says Michael Ross, Katie’s father.

The livery has paddocks for grazing that border the Lindisfarne dunes, which are a site of special scientific interest (SSSI), and they have suffered from wind erosion.

Ms Gregson said: “With our position so coastal the erosion hits us quite hard. We are limited how many horses we can have based on the amount of grazing we have.”

To tackle the erosion they planned to fill the holes with soil from local gardens and repair the fencing.

Mr Ross contacted Natural England, who tried to help but advised that “importing” soil would not work because of the risk of “contaminates” like piri piri seeds.

Instead it advised them to use “horse manure”, which Mr Ross said would blow away in the wind.

The livery could apply for a waste permit but they would have to pay for several surveys and hire a “technically competent manager to manage the site”.
