SCRUB BASHING AT STONELEES

Once again and  its the second Saturday in the Month so it must be Scrub Bashing at Stonelees with KWT Volunteers to continue the work of returning the area to Ancient Duneland Pasture.

The weather although overcast was good and we cleared a large area of Hawthorn and Sycamore (Acer pseudoplatanus) which has been a controversial species in British Forestry and Conservation alike.Its classification as both non-native and invasive has led to concerns of its impact on native and ancient woodland. 
Some pictures of today's Task & my thanks to all of those that helped
