Not all hedges constitute a fence (or offence)

and it still refers to evergreen or partly evergreen.




Thank goodness!



Because 8 foot is not too high a hedge when your garden is 200 foot long
and about 60 or 70 foot wide. Hawthorn would look terrible cut very low,
there's' not enough height for the beds to sit up out of the way of
predatory cats and the wind effect would be affected across the garden.
Besides I cut my hedge twice a year on both sides and it doesn't cause
shade to anyone.

I resent the implication that I am a nuisance neighbour!
