A-shaped

It was great to see how Chris approached cutting our laurel hedge. His aim, he explained, was to achieve an A shaped hedge, so narrower at the top. In fact the width at the top should be no more than half the height.

He cut the front first, ensuring he maintained a level top, before heading round to our neighbours to cut it from the back. Brian and I had spoken to them earlier in the week to ensure they were happy with us going onto their property.

It wasn’t long before Chris and I were loading the cuttings into the back of the trailer and heading to the tip.

Job done, and now so much easier to maintain.
