Some more hedgelaying today – this time with the National Trust at Alderley Edge, working on an old hawthorn hedge. We also planted saplings to fill some of the hedge’s gaps. It was hard work carrying our tools and the saplings to the work site over some challenging terrain – but the rain stayed off and all in all it was a satisfying day!
