Episode Synopsis "S1 E11 - the abundance of hedgerows "

While picking blackberries the other day I was struck by just how fantastic hedgerows actually are - from natural beauties to habitats and sources of deliciousness for animals and people alike - care to listen? To find out more about hedgerows and why they are so ecologically important visit any of the websites of The Wildlife Trusts - https://www.wildlifetrusts.org/habitats/farmland/hedgerow is a great place to start.  Hedgerows are also boundaries, and have been for hundreds, if not thousands of years in some areas, and have also been a controversial means to enclose formerly common land from the 13th Century, but notoriously between the 1730's to the 1830's. Historic maps can be a fun way of tracing the history the hedgerows near you.

As always - thanks for listening!
