I must have cut down a dozen sycamores this week, putting a new hedge line in. Replanting with beech, hazel, horse chestnut and sweet chestnut. We have at least 20 more of the pesky things to bring down which should stop their antics at self seeding everywhere. We are lucky that the TPO'S only cover the oaks that are growing nearby. But just in case somebody complains a great big bonfire is getting rid of the evidence, but I have been smoked like a kipper tending it.
You didn't fancy building a log cabin then. ;D
