Ancient Oak Tree

Normal Wednesday routine for us, over to Fulbourn to take Margaret for her volunteer job at the hospital. It was a lovely afternoon, bright and sunny with a slight cold nip in the wind. just right for a walk on Fulbourn Fen and a photograph of the ancient oak...

We measured this tree a couple of years ago, it's nearly 6 meters around the trunk, and the 'rule of thumb' for dating makes it about 400 years old.
