I love trees, they have so much history around them, especially something like an old Oak or Horse Chestnut. This is the stump of a Horse Chestnut, cut down for some reason or other. I loved looking at the age lines, asn it looks like at some point a fire has been lit near it.
It doesn’t look that old (as such) but it was a great tree and this post is also a bit in honour of that tree and all it ever sawy happen around it.

A very cool photo. Trees can tell us so much. There’s a tree stump in Flanders that shows damage from the mortar fire in The Great Warā. What they could tell us if they could speak…
