A group of volunteers planted 177 metres of mixed native hedging in 2004/05 alongside the western boundary, the first part of our Biodiversity Hedge to help enrich wildlife habitat in our park.
The original hedge saplings were laid in 2014 and again in late winter 2017/18 to encourage the hedge to thicken and grow nearer the ground so as to provide protection for wildlife. The weather was somewhat wintry during the last week of February: a case of “extreme” volunteering?
