The Common Hazel (Corylus avellana) is a species of hazel native to Europe and western Asia, where it is an
important component of the hedgerows that were traditional field boundaries. The wood was traditionally grown
as coppice, the poles cut being used for wattle-and-daub building and agricultural fencing. The name hazelnut
applies to the nuts of any of the species of the genus Corylus and is the kernel of the seed. It is edible and used
raw or roasted, or ground into a paste.
The Espagnole is a figure/formation devised by John Drewry and first used by him in “Glayva”.
