Nigel Pugh (he/him/they)<p>2/3 @bluekoala065@nerdculture.de I thought it looked pagan-ish , or gothic, old hunting grounds 16th century ish. Antler shapes, with reaching arms. I love that it’s shaped the Summergill brooke, &amp; possibly vice versa.

Nigel Pugh (he/him/they)<p>1/3 @bluekoala065@nerdculture.de I love the Summergill Brooke Ash, an ancient tree nearly at its end of life, but in great condition! Quite unique because of its species - Ash dieback, &amp; because of it’s location, a floodplain right on the Welsh boarders, and how its lifetime growing conditions have shaped it. An open grown ash tree, more than likely an Ash tree Silvopasture. Those branches had space to grow into…</p><p><a href="https://toot.wales/tags/ancienttree" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>ancienttree</span></a> <a href="https://toot.wales/tags/trees" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>trees</span></a> <a href="https://toot.wales/tags/photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>photography</span></a> <a href="https://toot.wales/tags/treelovers" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>treelovers</span></a> <a href="https://toot.wales/tags/livinglegends" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>livinglegends</span></a></p>
