A proper mixed one that reflects what grows well in the area. Just take a walk down the lanes and see what's doing well, hazel, dogrose, honeysuckle, hawthorn, etc etc. Any local tree/hedge expert worth their salt will be able to advise on the best 'mix'. We planted a mixed hedge in a previous house (took out some newly planted leylandii put in by previous owner). If 2-3 year old whips are used and planted at correct time they will soon flourish as will the local wildlife.
