Making Hedgerow Chairs

With Ivor Hancock

Discover how West Country folk used to make, strong, comfortable hedgerow chairs with materials from hedges, woods and gardens. The secret of the craft is in selecting precisely the right shapes of branches for the different parts of the chair. Cut green from the hedge these "grown components" have great inherent strength and, when fitted together in a cleverly devised sequence, produced a chair of proven strength and reliability.

Materials and tools supplied.
