Robert met with local parish councillors for the Wychwood parish at Cornbury Park today.  It was a great discussion about the issues affecting residents, but also the benefits that a fantastic tourist attraction like Cornbury Park can bring to the area, and how best to balance these.

Cogges Farm has been a mainstay in Witney for generations, and Robert is pleased that it is going from strength to strength.  It is testament to the community support it has received since the Cogges Heritage Trust was created in 2009.
