Good 'Moos' for Cow Fans

Rate this item
(2 votes)

Good 'Moos' for Cow FansApologies for the irresistible pun but readers will remember that we posted an online petition to reinstate the cows at Dairy Crest on the A316 road (see article of 18th July).

It seems that the petition, which attracted 8000 signatories, had the desired effect. The dairy in Feltham has been there since 1931 and has had cows on display in some form since that date. Originally the cows, fashioned out of concrete, were displayed in the gardens but were placed on the roof in 1977 on completion of an extension to the building.

We are pleased to report Dairy Crest has taken note of the petition and has agreed to reinstate the cows in the near future.

    You're right Claire, I just heard the news of the Dairy's closure after posting the article on the website. Small wonder that they agreed to put the cows back if its closure was already known!

    An empty victory - Dairy Crest have now announced that they are closing the Hanworth Dairy and will no longer produce or deliver milk bottles. Sad to see the end of the Great British Milkman.
    And we can all forward to another housing estate where the dairy now stands.
