Tree Plaque

2nd of May 2008 - comments

The tree to match the Silver Jubilee plaque mentioned in our March issue has been identified by several residents.
It is the Sweet Chestnut on the right hand side of Footpath No. 8 which leads down to the Apostles Pond as one enters the wood from the cricket field (behind the Oak planted to commemorate the queens Golden Jubilee).
Joan Brown remembers that her late husband David helped prepare the hole for the tree and Tony Briselden has a photograph of the planting ceremony.
Many thanks to all those who got in touch with information.
The Parish Council have agreed to provide a new plaque to replace the original, which is now  alas almost illegible. It will be installed beneath the tree in the next month or so.
