Frankton Grounds Farm Coppicing, Replanting and Fencing

Coppicing, replanting and fencing

100m of an old defunct hedgerow was coppiced using a tractor-mounted quad-saw as part of a volunteer and landowner demonstration event, providing several cubic metres of fire-wood to the farmer. The hedge was later planted and stock-fenced. Some mature hawthorn was left along the hedgerow, to add age diversity. Mill Farm Ashorne acted as contractor for the work.
