MY PASSION FOR TREES

I received an email from my step daughter in Australia this afternoon and she mentioned that they have just watched a programme called My Passion for Trees by Dame Judi Dench.  She commented on what a good programme it is so I googled it and came across a short video on the Crowhurst Yew.  It was fascinating but I was surprised to see it as I grew up just three miles from this tree and had never heard of it.  In Lingfield we had a large oak tree that was hollow inside but I had no idea that just outside the village was this magnificient specimen of Yew.

This is the link.

I do hope the programme is shown in New Zealand
