Through a Hedge Backwards

Take one neglected, lightly flailed hedge:

Hedge before laying

Knock it about a bit:

cutting pleachers

cut and laid

Hammer it down well:

hammering in stakes

Repeat ad nauseam and hey presto:

Laid hedge

A fully functioning, theoretically stock proof hedge. Rendered somewhat irrelevant by the subsequent invention of barbed wire, but hey, everybody’s got to have a hobby.

And how was your weekend?
