The Council owns sites within Stafford Borough which it lets for grazing. Grazing land is only offered on a 12 monthly licence agreement. The land is subject to Countryside Stewardship Agreements, which aim to enhance the wildlife and landscape value of the fields at the same time as maintaining productive farming. Consequently there are strict limits to the number of cattle or sheep that can be grazed on the meadows.
Where are the sites?
Stone Meadows Local Nature Reserve, in Stone (OS grid reference: SJ 895 340 and SJ 909 326)
Are there any vacancies?
There is currently a waiting list for vacant sites. If you wish to be placed on the waiting list please use the contact details above.
How much does it cost?
The licence fee depends on the size of the field. Terms of the licence will be discussed when a site is offered.
