I was schooled in laying hedges on the Quenby Estate in Leicestershire over twenty five years ago. My teacher was a wonderful countryman called Michael Dixon. He taught me that a well laid hedge should not be judged by the style and beauty of the job. Instead, he maintained it was the increased density, regrowth and habitat provision that was the hedgelayer’s benchmark. I pride myself that I took this lesson on board.

Now, with my business partner Richard Gould, we lay hedges on farms, shoots and estates throughout East Anglia, predominately for landowners who are as passionate about conservation as we are.    East Anglia has no unique hedgelaying style of its own, therefore we have adapted a number of traditional styles to suit our own unique landscape and the game and wildlife that calls it home.

We also offer other services, including hedge/tree planting and coppicing. Click though the images below for more information.
