We had claimed the Dorking cock was being moved to the recreation ground and hundreds had gathered to watch the move.
Although many people realised very quickly the removal of the Dorking cock was only an April 1st bit of fun a few more serious comments were made clearly showing the upset and fear of the cocks fate if moved.
We can now safely confirm the Dorking iconic Cockerel will not be moved from the A24 roundabout and still stands proudly in its rightful place.
We'd like to thank everyone for getting involved online and having some well needed fun.
