The wood at ‘onion corner’ is largely Hazel trees, which had been cut back to ground level many years ago. Some of the, now, large trees were cut down to allow new Hazel shoots grow. Due to Muntjac eating new shoots, the group are mainly pollarding the Hazel at about 5-6 feet. Cut Hazel is surrounded by a wigwam of branches in an effort to protect from the deer. Excess branches are placed to line the side of the woodland, to discourage access by the public.
John thanked volunteers for their help in improving the woodland.
