Whin (Gorse) Management

Whin (Gorse) management continues over the Winter. In the olden days the animals grazing the course kept the growth down.

The whins have become too leggy and woody and will eventually get blown over. The management plan involves cutting them down low to allow regrowth. The plan is to keep the gorse more bush like with the last photo showing how the whins will look in 2 years.
