Another useful thing modern houses don't have is a cool larder/pantry to keep food veg/fruit fresh longer. Know someone who build one into there house a walk in cuboard ventilated to the outside well insulated walls, & an insulated door from it to the rest of the house. Thought it was a great version of an old idea.

Maybe.....🙂 But all wild ivy species( i think?) have (as mentioned already) the ability of growing two types of leaves on the same plant as the second type of leave are associated with the flowers/berries? Though ive noticed the variagated garden cultivar ones don't seem to ever flower they just climb? Have a look at theese different ivy species distribution maps.... https://besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1365-2745.2005.01021.x Theopharastus view is still a commonly held one......

Does the NE have much in rotation hazel coppice for the binders etc? So the local style sounds similar to Lancs. & Westmorland ?

I don't know much about hedge laying but can't see why people traditionally would of being regional purists, as surely form follows function, so they would of done what worked best as stock barrier or to suit each individual situation with the use of local materials available? So I think go for practical magpie. http://treesplease.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/Trees-Please-Hedge-Laying-and-Coppicing-Guidance-2.pdf

Iiana phobes! 🙂 Don't forget all the ash that is dying from adb will often end up covered in ivy as the crown thins. Same for any other tree species struggling with the plethora of new tree diseases around atm. Maybe ivy is the canary down coal mine?

Ivy has benefited from climate change I reckon just from personal observation of its prevalance in hedges Study on Ivy: https://esajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/fee.2266 UK has 2 natives sub species of ivy apparently: Hedera helix ssp. helix and Hedera helix ssp. hibernica. Same as with there being two different hawthorns types As for it being a urgent threat think its not that bad compared to other things happening etc? Not as if its triffids? 😏

Im not convinced all teeth being the same length is as crtical as its often its made out to be, as long as the teeth are all sharpened at the right angles. (& as long as its not all one side is shorter than the other perhaps....). As getting all teeth same length would mean taking them all down if some get damaged? Have a few chains which have lost a couple of teeth completely and I think cut as well as the new ones maybe even abit better as the shorter worn teeth seem to help clear the chip faster. Still the markings may helpful with getting the angles right regardless of being used to get matching teeth length....
