Castle Rising (Onion Corner)

12/08/2024

The group met at “Onion Corner” and the task for the morning was to continue to coppice Hazel trees. Old tree trunks were cut down and placed as habitat piles. The remaining stumps were covered in branches to form a wigwam to protect any shoots from being nibbled by Muntjac deer, which would prevent any regrowth of the Hazel.Cutting down old uncoppiced trees, opened up the woodland to light, currently covered with nettles, but wild garlic in Spring.
