The old farming practice of keeping woodland and letting animals use it for shelter and feeding is rarely found now in Herefordshire. Woodland is usually small in area, more dense and with livestock excluded. Despite having warm woolly coats the local sheep huddle in sheltered places when a cold wind blows, giving an extra reason for keeping hedges and trees on the land.
