commonly be referred to as a brush pile or brush row. They are commonly
seen at the edge of a field that has recently been cleared of bushes and
saplings. Sometimes they are left to decay in place, sometimes they are
burned, and sometimes they are ground up by a wood-chipper and hauled away.</p>

the material is called brash (sometimes brush) in the UK. It is often just

a term that I recognise: it certainly isn't standard British English in the
conservation sector. Some hedgelaying techniques of interweaving can be
used, but these are in the main to reduce the size & profile of the
pile. When used as a barrier brash is usually used to plug small gaps
rather than to create a continuous barrier. Note that sometimes brash is
simply not cleared after chainsaw or brush-cutting and this may appear to a
deliberate rather than a transient & accidental barrier.</div><div

means a hedge where the plants have died.</div><div
