Next up: scrub reduction on Stagbury

Following the strimming of the grassy Chalkhill Blue site, we are tackling the adjacent area, currently a tangled mass of brambles, hawthorn, spindle, raspberries and dogwood. We began inside the fence that secures the site of the WW2 tunnel subsidence (erected by the WoodChips some years ago), where the brambles soon succumbed to our scythes. Across the rest of the site, slashers and our tree poppers were added to the fight. Once we've raked and cleared a suitable spot the piles of cut material will fuel a bonfire.
