Summary

[edit]
Description
English: A well laid hedge in Doynton Lane Making a good stock-proof barrier.
"In 55BC Julius Caesar recorded the fact that the "Nervi" tribe in Flanders, "Cut into slender trees and bent them over so that many branches came out along the length; they finished this off by inserting brambles and briars, so that these hedges formed a defence like wall, which could not only not be penetrated but not even seen through". Any modern hedgelayer would be proud to have his work so described and it is clear that even at this early date the skills of the hedgelayer were highly developed." 
The above was copied from http://www.hedgelaying.org.uk/styles.htm where there is much more of interest on this subject.
