Bramble Roots Grubbing
Today the 4 members of the Fields Committee with 10 other volunteers attacked the bramble roots down the side of the T.H.White boundary fence which over the years had grown out to an unmanageable distance.
This will try to ensure that the brambles grown nearer to the fence and will be thicker and less straggly, giving good crops of blackberries, better and safer locations for birds' nests, and extra grazing for cattle. We finished at 1PM with the most of the aim achieved.
