I’ve been wargaming Normandy battles a lot this year across the tabletop, boardgames, and PC. I’m reminded each time with greater depth of clarity what a nightmare combat was in the hedgerows.

If your missing your spiders, maybe its time we 'introduced' some of ours to your hedgerows as payback for the misery UK sp. continue to impact our wildlife.

I have no idea what you're talking about! I'm just pale and wear flowing dresses and have pointed ears a little bit and commune with wild animals sometimes but that's just because I spend all of my time in misty forests and hedgerows and pastoral landscapes

Morning Kate, morning ORSs ☕️
Looks like quite a nice day out there. We were lucky with our walk yesterday - enjoyed by all.
Today I will bathe and clip/trim the dog, then get my own hair cut. Then it’s pretty much Holiday Here We Come for Saturday morning.
Hope all have a good day

Over my lifetime the farming landscape in Kent changed from a patchwork of fields to arable prairie to facilitate larger and larger machines and less workers.
Hedgerows and their wildlife have been destroyed to make way and the herbicide, fungicide and insecticide sprayed has taken a toll.

I used to live in southern England - small woods and hedgerows interspersed with fields. There was lots of wildlife - foxes, badgers, hedgehogs, the occasional red deer and muntjac. The dawn chorus was deafening. Where I live now is deathly silent - mainly due to sheep farming.

been following tremendous pile-ons about pole siting in Hull and Hedon; we've got new poles marching along rural lanes complete with new parallel hedgerows (oh yes, a miracle of subsidy) It's Back To The Future

Hedgerows need careful management for the benefit of the hedge & wildlife.
An excellent video 👇 explaining that repeated annual cutting to same level won't allow blossom & fruits to develop nor benefit the hedgerow.
Do watch & share.

We're appealing for #volunteers of all ages to come and help plant nearly one kilometre of hedges to help nature friendly farmers and landowners create new native #hedgerows. It all starts at Alpacaly Ever After at Basecamp North in November. 💪🌿

Requiem for a hillfort
Until the 1960s, the outline of Madmarston Iron Age hillfort #Oxfordshire was defined by fieldbanks and hedgerows

Since then it has been sadly obliterated by agriculture ☹️

This! Compost them if you must but leaving scooped out Pumpkin shells in hedgerows and grass areas is anti social, they take ages to rot.
Seasonal reminder, Pumpkins make Hedgehogs sick, so don't leave any out where they can reach them.

Strolling through the ethereal lanes of Creaky Bottom, I inhaled the heady perfume of hay and whispered secrets of the hedgerows, where every fluttering leaf seemed to sigh romance.

Misspelled, it’s “Sprake” in the novella. In the novel-length version his name changes to “Yaxley” — the more, I always thought, to emphasize the rancid Britishness of the man

A post on shaws in the Low Weald of Sussex. These tiny relicts of former bigger woodlands, or widened hedgerows, often form field boundaries in the extant Saxon field system of the Low Weald; they are often semi-natural ancient woodland but they are destroyed at the drop of a hat for house building.
Notable vascular plants of medieval woodland shaws north-west of Cowfold, West Sussex. Low Weald. 23.10.25
