Narrative:
During the take off run the pilot felt an unexplained jolt and with insufficient runway left to stop the aircraft he attempted to take off, he then realised he would be unable to clear the boundary hedge and a building at the end of the runway, so he retracted the undercarriage and attempted a belly landing, but the right wing hit the ground first, slewing the aircraft sideways through the boundary hedge where it came to a halt. Both occupants exited without injury.
