WESTBURY Rotary Club has received permission to paint the White Horse. It is the second part of the project, led by the Rotary Club of Westbury, to get the horse looking its best for the Jubilee celebrations.
Last month, volunteers scaled down the horse with brushes and steam cleaners to give it a much-needed clean, succeeding in transforming the horse back from a ‘grey mare’ to a White Horse once more. However, they needed to obtain permission from both English Heritage and Natural England before they could start the second phase of the project, painting the horse, which has now been granted. Poor weather hampered efforts to start painting at the end of April, with painting due to start last weekend, weather permitting.
