New life for an old tree

Since the seat has been re-instated on the hill above Thornbury, the moribund red horse chestnut tree beside it is staging a come-back


It's flowering now so pay it a visit if you can.


As I mentioned on my 'Lady's Smock' post on 2nd May, the seat is a memorial to local naturalist Allan Burberry who died in March last year.  Allan's family are kindly donating all the royalties from Allan's book to the Friends of Filnore Woods to further the interests of nature and wildlife in Thornbury.  Another payment came in this week.  Thank you Helen, Diana and all.
