Be warned with blackthorn though - it does send up suckers quite at distance from the parent. I have quite a bit left over from when our garden wa a field, and its quite a nuisance, though the spring blossom is lovely.Also the prunings are exremely spiny, worse than hawthorne and hard to dispose of.

Hi I would think elder, spindle, hawthorn, blackthorn are all good hedgrow plants though non of these are evergreen. some holly mixed in would also do the job.
