    similiar thread here, went a bit off tangent but you would need permission from dept of ag and have to plant similiar length of hedge elsewhere on the farm. Time of year to do it is limited, probably too late now as birds would be nesting now.

    If the seat's wet, sit on yer hat, a cool head is better than a wet ar5e.
