December 2018 ~ Wolf Conservation Trust, Beenham ~ Hedgelaying preparation

From the outset it was obvious this was going to be a challenging hedge to lay.

With an increasingly bitter wind the bonfire was all the more welcome at lunchtime .....

..... although some found other places to seek shelter.

Early afternoon and the temptation to start laying proved to great.

Even with the initial clearing complete and the laying started, the task seems none the less daunting.
