Our contractor has been cutting the hedges round Whatcombe Fields, one tractor and flail Tuesday and today Thursday two tractors with flails.
As the trees now grown within the boundary hedge down from the new kissing gate on Whatcombe Road are blocking the view from houses on Upper Whatcombe, and were too high for the tractor to cut, we will lower them soon.
