Old Oak Tree.

Some serious goings on with this Oak tree in the past.
Taken walking through Windors Park near the Guards Polo ground.

Re: Old Oak Tree.

It looks like one of the Ents (walking & talking trees in Lord of the rings).

Re: Old Oak Tree.

It fascinated me, as I have seen some unusual looking oaks before but that one is a bit different.
Your right Longdogs (Ents) it loooked weird walking past it.

Its worth seeing if you go into the park from Bishopsgate Road near the pub "The Fox and Hounds" turn left at the first crossroads and just keep walking for about a mile or so.

Re: Old Oak Tree.

Very strange and unusual it does look rather 'creature like' .
