Witness appeal following stabbing in Ludlow
Officers investigating an incident in Ludlow, where a man was stabbed, are appealing for witnesses to help with their enquiries.
Sheds housing nearly 200,000 broiler chickens at a Herefordshire farm are to be demolished and rebuilt to a higher standard.
A planning application by Avara Foods, one of the county’s largest employers, says the replacement sheds at Parkway Farm, Madley west of Hereford would have the same footprint as the current eight within the two-hectare site, and “will not result in any increase in floor area, bird numbers, or operational intensity”.
