The Wobbly Hedge!
The Wobbly hedge was planted in the 1850's at Montacute House and the unusual bumpy shape of the yews was caused by heavy snowfall in the winter of 1947, which caused it to collapse under the weight.It grew back naturally in this abstract shape. It was featured in Ang Lee's 1995 adaptation of "Sense and Sensibility".
