Field maple
An ancient tree, 12.0 m round the trunk
Next to a footpath or road rather than in open ground.
Take me thereI'm here, add itPhotograph it, say why it's worth seeing, and it goes on the map as a Cool Tree, found by you. Anybody can add to it after that.
Where it is
Show on the mapEast End, Basingstoke and Deane
The position comes from a survey, so expect to be within a few metres rather than standing at the trunk.
Is this the one?
What to check when you get there.
- It should be a field maple.
- It's 12 m round the trunk, about 8 people holding hands round it. That's the easiest check there is.
- It's part of a laid hedge, so look along the hedge line for a trunk bent over and grown along the ground.
- The position came from a surveyor, so it can be a few metres out. If two big trees are close together, the girth usually settles it.
