Grave error

It has allowed so very many magical trips for children and we adults feel there has been a special place for us too.

It deserves twice the amount of money being poured into it to develop it, not only for private family outings, but for the immense educational facility, not only for schools, but for those of all ages.

It would cost so little to pay an evaluation expert to come into the museum and pinpoint what can be enhanced, what can allow the farm to retain its special atmosphere and learning possibilities and to state clearly how money can be raised.

Local authority employees have their specialised and most wonderful skills, but need to step back to allow in an expert.

This is not just for Witney community, or for Oxfordshire alone, but for the whole country.

We just cannot allow this exceptional museum to go.
