Owner of the world's highest hedge facing £90,000 bill for getting it trimmed

The owner of the highest hedge in the world, which was last cut nearly 20 years ago, is facing a £90,000 bill for getting it trimmed.

The 500m long beech hedge, which stands taller than 30m, was planted in 1745.

It is a magnet for tourists since being recognised by the Guinness Book of Records as the highest hedge in the world.
