Herd of cows race through empty streets of quiet village as lockdown continues

A herd of cows were caught on camera racing through the empty streets of a quiet village near Gower as lockdown continues across the country.

After dozens of goats took over the roads in Llandudno and sheep queued patiently in a McDonald's car park in Ebbw Vale, these cows decided to take advantage of the quiet streets of Southgate.

The unusual site was caught on camera by 12-year-old Noah Williamson,who was out with his brother at the time.

The pair were forced into a nearby driveway as the cows came galloping down the road.

Their mum Stephanie said she was pleased that nobody was injured.

One of the cows, the last one to appear in the video, appears to have a chair stuck on its head.

A family member of the owner of the cows, Angharad Williams, confirmed that it was not injured during the ordeal and the cows made their way home safely afterwards.

"The cows roam, and we got the call from someone down SandyLane that there was a cow with a chair on its head," she continued.

“My uncle who owns the cows was out on a job somewhere, so I went overto have a look down Sandy Lane, but had calls from people that theyhad stampeded their way back through Southgate and towards the fields.

"It is alright, they know their way home."
