Rather large Horse Chestnut

[Stephen Blair]

sorry no pics, it was years ago, my mobile phone at the time had an arial that wouldnt of looked out of place on a house:biggrin:, i hope i wasnt sounding like i was saying 'my tree is bigger than your tree'. It was in Sterling, i also had to fell about a thousand conifer that were in pots. they were left overs fron the Glasgow Garden Party, and they had been shoved in a field and grew out the pots, they were about 30 feet high and 6 inches in diameter:biggrin:

good shout forge valley not far from east ayton, its about 30yard from seavegate road. where abouts you bases then?

 

Thought I recognised it.

 

Theres a massive beech tree near it too, riddled with gano and a few others right by the roadside.

 

I'm near Driffield, but I used to go shooting up that way a few years back.
