The 15th "Skills of the Hills" Annual Hedge Event — 2012
The 2012 event took place on Saturday 10th March at Lower Shelvin Farm, Luppit by kind permission of Mr Arthur Sage.
Another hugely successful day and our biggest ever competition with 90 people competing. Yet another gloriously fine day especially warm in the afternoon.
There is a gallery of a few pictures taken during the day below.
