A curious alignment of plucked beech trees on Chemin des Sorcières.

Go and meet a curious line of plucked beech trees on the Chemin des Sorcières. The plessage consisted in ridding the hedge of its bushes, the base of the young trees was notched at two thirds of the diameter of the trunk with a serp. The branches were bent in the direction of the hedge and braided together horizontally. The bent hedge was left untouched for one or two years before the shoots were cut again. The multiple cuts each time generate scarring beads giving the tree a tortuous silhouette.

Enlaidissement du site par l'homme
Les arbres de l'Allée des Géants sont majestueux. Mais l'inscription comme site classé s'est accompagnée d'une mise en clôture et d'une scandaleuse opération de sablage de l'allée qui lui enlèvent une grande partie de son charme. Il y a donc un paradoxe à voir son classement en site naturel protégé se traduire par une dénaturation du site. Faut-il que l'homme soit une espèce nuisible au point d'enlaidir tout ce qui est naturellement beau ?
