I have a lot of cyprus hedging around the house, planted for about the last 15/20 years. Its a very thick hedge on top but the lower parts are bare. There is a stone wall in front of the hedge and in the last couple of years the bare section of the hedge has started to move above the wall leaving a gap between the wall and the hedge.

dont think there is much you can do there as these don't really regrow from old wood.
