Whose antique root peeps out
16 April 2013 (540)

Charlecote Park, Warwickshire view map

A favourite tree:
the evergreen Holm Oak,
or 'Quercus ilex' -- with leaves
like holly (hence the name).
Not a British native; but
now a common sight.

Is there a little brook brawling along beside it? A fine image of this majestic tree.
