    this link might shed some light on it https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dule_tree  scroll down to sites of previous trees 

    It is NOT a dule tree, as explained there are several trees and know their locations. it is specificically the Fairy Tree I am looking for.

    Plus that wiki entry is incorrect, it describes the resting tree which was completely different from the dule tree which was located half a mile away.

    The main significant trees located there are/were:

    Courting Tree

    Resting Tree

    Sweet Chestnut Tree

    Dule Tree

    Fairy Tree

    Yew Tree

    All are individual trees and locations are confirmed except the Fairy Tree,. Wiki seems to think 4 of those trees are the same tree which is totally wrong.

    I reckon beech is a good bet, but hard to be sure. Have you looked into its history? Why does it have that name, and is it mentioned in any local history books perhaps?

    there is no history of it at all, all there is, is that one postcard. they are mainly an irish thing but the laird of estate has no irish connection only scots and norse.

    it is unknown why it was located here or what it represented. its a total mystery.

    The majority of trees on the estate is beech, ash and sycamore. there is the odd other kinds but very sparsly populated. For example there is only one sweet chestnut and one willow tree that existed but willow was cut down in 1912, and 3 acorn trees, and 4 scots pine.
