July 2020 ~ Paices Wood Country Park, Aldermaston ~ Coppice protection and layering

Our first task since the easing of lockdown when a 'select few' returned to last winter's coppice plot .....

..... covering stools to protect from deer damage .....

..... and layering hazel stems to propagate new stools.
