Dangerous or intimidating animals problem
Reported in the Dangerous or intimidating animals category by Gloucestershire County Council at 14:05, Wednesday 13 May 2026
FixMyStreet ref: 9451371.
On Sunday 10th May I was with a group of walkers following the Isbourne Way /Cotswold Way near Postlip. The group of walkers entered a field with two horses. The silver grey coloured one was at the kissing gate and as I passed between the horse and the fence the horse turned his head and bit my arm. I now have two bruises on my upper arm. I understand he also bit one of the other walkers hand too.
I have tried to enter this on your system but am unable to get passed the mapping. The nearest point on the map is where it says Tythe Barn.
