The Woodland Trust believes hedgerows should be protected and conserved, particularly those that contain ancient woodland features or ancient trees.
A new hedge cannot replace an ancient hedgerow and its important relict features, which cannot return once lost.
This position statement presents:
- our view across five key points
- six actions we are committed to in defence of our precious hedgerows.
