A very old tree (7/9)

List item
Approved

This cedar is about 300 years old and must therefore have been planted at about the time that the house was built. In former times it was thought to bring good luck if you left a coin in the bark of the tree, but this was not good luck for the tree, parts of which have died off as a result.

    • What is left looks very healthy, so as long as people heed the notices and don’t stick coins in the bark, it should last for a few more centuries yet!
