Todays job is clearing the last few clumps of plantation to reinstate a grouse moor. Method: 1. Cut fire break around plantation. 2. Light it. 3. Go back with mulcher to trash the remaining trunks to remove perches for crows etc.

We've cleared approx 800 acres this way in the last 3 years.

This job was actually Saturday, taking down a decent sized poplar. 2 of us went up and had it down by ten:) bit of clean up although all the wood was staying

Bramble and buddleia bashing today. I love those blades for the strimmers. Had to clear a 10ft strip right round this site

Today fell, removed because the roots were effecting the electric sub station. Line up, winch tensioned and fell,
