'The Save the Area North of Dorchester (STAND) took to the town centre to voice their concerns over the proposed development of 4,000 homes by the North Dorchester Garden Community to the north of the county town, known colloquially as the 'Norchester' development. The protestors followed the 'Dorset Ooser', which was historically a character with a monstrous wooden mask with bull's hair and horns which was used to scare people away from the countryside.'
