John Morrison Posted April 29, 2022 Author Share Posted April 29, 2022 Thanks, folks. Interesting websites. I didn't know 'my' hedge was constructed in the Midlands style (rather than Cumbrian), or to use 'pleaches' and 'liggers' in the keywords. Here in Yorkshire, dry stone walling is the traditional farming skill... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
