Devon style

Never layed in a Devon style myself, but it looks near manicured enough to be entered in a best-kept-garden competition!?

Remarkable! 

Thanks I always cut out most of the bigger stuff and wind in the smaller trees and whips

I am on a bit of hedge laying at the moment, only a few hundred meters to do, couple of fences grown in as well for good measures, nice and rusty, perfectly camouflaged, to take the edge of your saw!

Plenty of beech

Here’s another hedge but had too burn as I went 

a lot of dead thorn in underneath this one with 

Barb wire grown in

Not one, despite being in Exmoor national park. Luckily predominantly hazel on this stretch, but then have bramble and Blackthorn on the next one.

It ain't much but it's honest work. 

12ft drop down to the road so a bit precarious bringing all the roadside stuff back into the field.

Will you cast up from both sides?

[markieg31]

No casting up, not really an option to cast up from the roadside and from the field it's flat so not like a bank that has fallen down over time. 

Further down the field there are no trees on the fence line they are 5ft down the bank so will be laying it up the bank. Bit of a tangled mess as it has historically been flailed so pretty tangled at a certain height.

Would it harm to start making a ditch on the field side? Cast up from that side only.
