Exmoor Ponies on Traprain Law

Image
On Saturday evening I walked to the summit of Traprain Law for the first time since we moved to Dunbar last summer.  The hill might only be 221 metres high  but the views over East Lothian are spectacular - more on this on tomorrow's blog. Most of the hill is grass land and designated as a Site of Specific Scientific Interest (SSSI) because of its botanical and geological interests as well as having Ancient Monument designation.   To maintain the botanical interest on the Law and minimise the risk of fire, grazing has taken place for a number of years. Initially sheep were used, but since 2012 13 Exmoor ponies have been grazing the hill.
