Hi Lloyd
I have just done something similar on clear fell
Plant native - best4hedging RSPB ultimate mix is coming great after 2/3 years - it flowers and fruits and provides cover
I have made spinneys, shelter belts and a new wood.
I have cleared areas on the clear fell and planted game crops - stuff that' flowers and seeds for insects and other birds - something like Kings Moir Mix
Loads more wildlife about and its holding the birds like a magnet
Corn costs have halved too
Last thing - if you create a splash / wet area in the clear fell they will reward ten fold !
