Marion from Scotland
It was a nice reminder of Forden area, when viewing your photos Ian espcially the one of the red tree,a copy of which takes pride of place on my sitting room wall.Hedge Laying ones also very interesting,and long may Trevor continue to do this traditinal craft.Trevor you are also doing a lot to preserve the habitat of a wide variety of plant and animal speciesYour fame is spreading far and wide as i have just sent details of both you Trevor and Ian to Australia.

This was so very interesting to see actual photos of how this art of hedge laying is completed. I hope Trevor Davies teaches his talent to others as you sure would not see this in the USA. If we can't cut something down---then we'd surely burn it--forget about using it for something useful.
