Hedging

Just about finished the east boundary hedge between the field and trackway, layered the few existing hawthorns and tried to preserve as much of the wild roses as possible.
I've put in 25 young hawthorns, an alder and 2 hazels.
Didn't get as far as replacing the field gate and posts though.

Quite a few folk out and about along the footpath over the last week, including neighbouring landowners, which was handy for introductions and a chat.

In the south boundary hedge are a few mature ash trees - one has a Woodpecker hole a fair height up...

  1. Nice to see you laying hedges! We've just been cutting some Hornbeam pollards at the edge of our wood, and I hope to lay the regrowth to reinstate a hedge there in a few years...
