Orchard
Orchard Gate

After lots of frustration over the community allotment's orchard being used as a dog toilet, I finally decided to put a gate on and block a few of the bigger gaps.
I had some ash branches which I cut to length, shaved a bit and put together with mortice and tenon joints and clenched nails. Although the branches weren't big enough to cleft, nor straight, it did magically fit together quite well. Aesthetically, I'm rather proud of my effort as it suits the rest of the orchard well.
