Lady Carnarvon who runs real-life Downton Abbey estate says 'people can't eat trees' and UK must grow more of its own food as she blasts Government's rewilding plans
The countess who runs the real-life Downton Abbey estate has blasted the Government's rewilding plans and insisted Britain must grow more of its own food.
Lady Carnarvon, who farms at Highclere Castle in Hampshire, said rewilding risked making the UK reliant on foreign imports of food, adding 'we cannot eat the trees that politicians propose we plant'.

Rewilding aspires to restore natural ecosystems by reducing human influence on them - and can include the introduction of missing species.
The Government has set itself a target of creating 30,000 hectares of new woodland every year in the UK by March 2025 - equating to between 90 million and 120 million trees each year, depending on planting density.

Reminders seem to be round every bend. Rory Muir’s new biography of the Duke of Wellington was just published in December and so I’ve been reading reviews of it whilst awaiting the arrival of my own copy (oh, Joy!). And then there are the gossip items one can’t help reading lately regarding the engagement of the present Duke of Wellington’s granddaughter, Sofia Wellesley, to ex-guardsman and current crooner James Blunt, pictured below. Lately, one can hardly turn around without encountering the Duke of Wellington. And there was the diorama of the Duke of Wellington’s funeral procession, with rolls of handcoloured pictures of all the dignitaries and their carriages, which I found recently on eBay. It looked something like a thicker Etch-A-Sketch, the pictures moved along rollers that were controlled by the two knobs beneath
