You can download a copy from: www.forestofbowland.com/deerparks and read all the detail about how Leagram and Radholme parks were developed, managed and finally dis-parked. There is also a short report about the salters, or deer leaps, around Leagram park, which we have been investigating lately.
The report contains some of the photos and images from this blog, and many more of archived material which was unearthed during the research work carried out by Nigel Neil, Ruth Thurnhill and Graham Cooper.
