About
The property was originally three horse fields. Now it has an English wood, a fruit tree garden, vegetable patch, Greenhouse an enclosed paddock with a barn, and an open field. My house, an Airbnb cottage, a stable block, garage, huge open barn, chicken yard, a 'bunkhouse' which I sometimes let out, but would be for volunteers to use.
The jobs that need doing are: hazel coppicing, hedgerow management with some hedge laying. A building needs taking down and help with re-building a new bathroom for the Bunkhouse and extra bedroom. Help with fruit tree pruning, tidying and weeding greenhouse, general tidying up.
