The photograph on this page of Hedge bank by Humphrey Bolton as part of the Geograph project.
The Geograph project started in 2005 with the aim of publishing, organising and preserving representative images for every square kilometre of Great Britain, Ireland and the Isle of Man.
There are currently over 7.5m images from over 14,400 individuals and you can help contribute to the project by visiting https://www.geograph.org.uk

In 'The Hertfordshire Landscape' there is mention of a possible continuity of farming and some field boundaries from Roman times to the present, so I wondered how old this hedge bank is.
