There is something unique about the Cornish hedge. They are so similar and yet they are all so different. This hedge is full of plants – bracken, hawthorn, ivy and brambles. There are many haws on the hawthorn – that will be good for the birds in winter. The ivy is blooming – the wasps like that now. I gathered some blackberries on the brambles – to boil with apples. We had to tidy our garden – we found old things in the hedge. We found rough bricks, made by whom, and how old? They are the home of little animals – snails and woodlice. Nowadays there are Cornwall Council rubbish collectors. In the past things were thrown in a hedge. Here's an old medicine bottle and a wash basin base. I must wrap them in newspaper.
