Tie a rope around base, soak the soil around the roots very well, tie other
end of rope to car and drive off slowly.
Unless the hawthorn is very tall of course.

Sadly it is looking as though I shall have to remove a hawthorn hedge. If
I cut it out at the roots will it die, or do I need to grub the roots out
as well?
