Countryfile - Season 38 - Eps 4: New Forest
Adam Henson and Sean Fletcher explore the rich landscapes of the New Forest, where the animals that roam the heath and woodlands play an essential role in shaping the landscape. Adam joins the head agister on his rounds, overseeing the commoners' livestock, and meets the people who have the right to graze their animals in this ancient landscape. Sean helps to restore Europe's largest remaining area of lowland heath and visits a community woodland where Shire horses are helping with coppicing. He also goes in search of the elusive hawfinch and meets a woman building a successful soap-making business from goat's milk. Beyond the New Forest, Adam travels to Shropshire to meet a young pig farmer who is passionate about both agriculture and preserving the countryside.
