Snake bush is so called as we found small 2 asp vipers there when we hadnt been in long. Back then it was maybe 2m deep and 4m long. We'd hacked it back quite hard a few years back as it was causing a fruit tree to not grow straight.
Today it was probably 4m deep, 10m long and around 6m tall. Removed up to 1m in depth in some places (it borders the neighbours) and maybe 3m off one end, and some of the blackthorn trees were 4+m. Plenty of bramble too. We had a good crop of both sloes and black berries this year.
Even with kevlar gloves, it was punishing work. About 2 man days providing about 2.5m3 of chippings.
