Cow dies after being struck on road by vehicle on Minchinhampton Common

MOST READ

A cow has been killed after it was struck by a car in the Gloucestershire countryside.

The incident took place at Minchinhampton Common on the Cirencester Road, between Tom Long’s Post and The Bear of Rodborough Hotel at around around 7.15pm -7.20pm on Wednesday, October 1.

Hundreds of cattle roam the Minchinhampton, Selsley and Roodborough commons, but signs to alert drivers and fresh road markings have failed to stop cows being hit by cars.

In the last ten years 40 to 50 cattle have been killed or fatally injured on the commons.
