    Think provenance choice of species planted is important as so much variation within species prorbably often overlooked? Mentions a late flushing walnut cultivar that reduces frost damage: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&ved=2ahUKEwiSnKvc2OXpAhVRoVwKHaBlDtIQFjABegQIBxAB&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.forestresearch.gov.uk%2Fdocuments%2F967%2Ffcin082.pdf&usg=AOvVaw3VotZA-AvR1QVo3Kkfh68k Also the selection of a seed source from a cultivar of a species selected for the timber quality plus climate and soils.

    Polytunnel looks to small to fit the wood in.

    12m think you need some decent ladders or reduce height alot. ? Width is always an issue also sometimes people don't realize this when they get hedges 6m across the top. Leylandi doesn't grow from dead wood so may look ugly after a severe reduction though if it is just topped may be hidden. Makita battery garden stuff it good .

    What wrong with non natives if they grow well and provide useful timber. I'd like more sweet chesnuts coppice plantations but maybe climate isn't viable for them in north?

    The local footpath volunteer group has a BGS flail i think, and use chainsaws and strimmers etc not sure how insurance works. Hardly any bridle paths round here though and majority of footpaths say around 75% of them are completely overgrowth and not useable. Not gone on any footpaths since covid lockdown & the only thing that was keeping many them open I reckon is regular use. I carried a pocket silky, and loppers sometimes to hack through encroaching scrub and head height brambles.

    I reckon here but dunno and % prob of sucessful regrowth hard to predict. Drought conditions atm for many places in UK etc recently Maybe do it in stages but then excesss shade may be an issue though partial light shade could be a benefit? Some neglected pollards think they advocated doing staged work. Might not regrow though?
