Other comments:
2017. These trees continue to struggle, like the Cariad and Cresswell plots, possibly because of the exposed position. However, many of the sub-plots within Coed Mike have virtually disappeared, mainly due to lack of care during planting! (To be fair the weather on the day they were all planted was atrocious!)
