It should work now, I hope. Please let me know because it always worked on my iPad so I went on to the PC and changed the YouTube settings...

all viewable now - very nice wood.

an effective treatment for braken is to roll it from time to time.

Thanks Terry. I heard that rolling was a possibility, and read about a company in Powys that uses horses (http://www.powysforesthorses.co.uk/services.php). I'm in Lincolnshire and have a basic utility quad, so I wonder if its feasible to hook something up behind that, if the roller doesn't have to be heavy? Suggestions welcome please!

with the proliferation of implements for quads and compact tractors, no doubt there is a dedicated roller available.
A quick google search for ATV/quad equipment gives numerous offerings and no doubt evil bay etc will have options.

Efficacy will obviously depend on the ground conditions re slope, obstructions like trees and stumps etc

although a bit far from you, this type of thing would do the trick
