Fences and walls deliberately damaged
Members of the public are being urged not to trespass on private upland and wooded areas, after an apparent surge in break-ins.
A plea has been issued by the Department of Environment, Food and Agriculture, after fences and walls were repeatedly 'intentionally damaged' over the summer.
Illegally straying onto farms, it adds, can cause 'great inconvenience' for landowners as it can allow livestock to escape.
DEFA has highlighted the private road between Cornaa Farm and the Corrany in Maughold as a particular trouble spot.
