SUMMER SOLSTICE MASS TRESPASS

[tliouk]

The Phantom Conservation Volunteers are calling a
SUMMER SOLSTICE MASS TRESPASS
Against the destruction of a quarter of a mile of old chalk grassland
SUNDAY 20th JUNE

This spring a local farmer bulldozed and ploughed the old Down 
pasture hillside known as Scabby Brow, at Ashcombe Farm between Lewes 
and Falmer. The law is clear: destruction of this natural habitat 
requires an environmental impact assessment. None was done. 
Will the farmer restore this site? Will he be prosecuted? THAT 
DEPENDS ON OUR PRESSURE. 
This farm has trashed other old chalk grassland refuges, closed 
historic footpaths, and bulldozed an ancient bostal track and burial 
mound to provide a motorway for combine harvesters. But their attempt 
to race cars across the open Down was successfully opposed by direct 
action.
 
Meet 12.00 noon (PROMPT) SUNDAY 20th JUNE
at St PETERS CHURCH on THE LEVEL
Bring water & a picnic & money for the bus. Wear good boots & have 
sun protection.
