Isn't the plan of eco types to replant the Caledonian Forest so conifers but different ones. But i suppose also oak and broadleafs etc in more lowlands areas... Think Scotlands big enough for planting more of both plantations and the native stuff. -

Looks a beech hedge with a hawthorn and some cherry trees. Leaders left to grow into trees, not a good idea as unless you either want to them develop into either a higher hedge or a line of trees instead of a hedge as they will shade bottom and make the hedge thin if left as trees You can trim the beech and hawthorn now . Leave pruning any lower branches on the cherry trees till summer due to silver leaf risk. Maximizing light will thicken the base of the hedge up, having to many trees above overhanging etc isn't good due to excess shade, also keeping the hegde trimmed in future will be easier if the lower cherry tree branches are kept clear of hedge top. Remove old fence unless its needed stopping stock etc and keep grass cut on both sides along base (without barking trunks) as that will thicken base gaps up as long grass in summer probably shaded the base....
