Above is what the path looked like, west of New England Wood, Cuckfield last July before I set to work on it. 
Above is what the path looked like today before two hours of toil.
This is what the High Weald Landscape Trail looked like after 2 hours hacking with a sickle to cut back bracken, nettles and brambles. It is relatively easy to hack back bracken at a young or "bishops crook" stage. Last year it must have taken me 5 times as long to achieve a similar effect.A naive thought perhaps, but perhaps the path will be bracken free for the rest of this year. We shall see.
