I'm not a big fan of putting signs up here and there, but hopefully one on the access track might put off a few of the unwelcome visitors:
Reasonably handy timing, as it looks like fly-tippers are active again in the area. A load of household rubbish / building debris has been dumped across the access to the allotments just over the border...
Not much work done on the land due to the weather and wet ground, although the last couple of days have been pleasant enough to prepare for replanting a gap in the south hedge (and clearing the remains of an old ditch).
Mainly hawthorn to go in, but with random blackthorn and the odd dog-rose, as well as a reasonable sized oak salvaged from the neighbour.
The grass isn't looking too bad, although i'm sure the wet year and extra flooding have exacerbated historical contours.
Also a different mower to try behind the small tractor, particularly for around the orchard trees.
