Personally, Luci, I think that brambles should be classed as a superplant. Terrific deterrent - who wants to pick brambles out of their skin for hours - and all that lovely free fruit for eating and making wine or liqueurs. As you say, also so helpful for wildlife.

I agree , you can grow brambles anywhere, zero effort and all reward.
excellent source of free sugars.

superfood, like eggs

good post mary thanks...getting around to my fence shortly,on the boundry ...its a fair old run the first section is about 60 m then turns to stock fence for 140 mts...which will need new post here and there ..the good news is all the strainers are all railway sleepers and are ok

not too sure id leave them railway sleepers as fence posts,
you can use allsorts for fenceposts, them railway sleepers would make a lovely strong roof and retainers for a dugout.
