Default Allen Sythe? ? ? ? ?

I am about to take on a very overgrown allotment.

Does anyone know if allen sythes are still available to hire?

I believe the "modern alternative" is the Flail Mower!

Any other advice welcome.

PS. I'm in Warwick.


Thanks in advance, Martin

Ive used a machine called a 'bushwacker', where years ago I might have used an allen scythe. It has a tough rotary blade and will clear most things and is readily available at hire outlets.
