Not ancient or spiritually specific, maybe, but the Woodland Trust is running a scheme to catalog all the ancient trees in the country. Basically, if you come across a big tree, you go up and hug it (to measure it. although I'm sure the trees would appreciate a nice hug. ahhh, I certainly feel better). Something fun to do if you're out and about with the offspring this summer. www.ancient-tree-hunt.org.uk/ |

hmmm... looking at their map, the small wood behind my house are classed as "Ancient Natural Woodland". I knew I was drawn to it for some reason.. it's the only Ancient Woodland for miles. Brilliant.

I showed the Forestry Commision man my woodland neighbour ancient Service and I nearly had to pick up his jaw from the floor.

Cool! I've been fascinated with Service trees since reading Patrick Ropers posts about them on the old Awen list (anyone still in touch with him?)
