Wealden has some of the largest areas
of ancient woodland in the country, but there are also many ancient
trees, with big fat trunks and gnarled branches, that stand out in the
landscape. Do you have a favourite?
Wealden District Council, the Sussex
Wildlife Trust and the Woodland Trust’s Ancient Tree Hunt are asking
residents to find their favourite old tree, in order to help the
District survey these wonderful specimens.
The WAT art competition is also being held to encourage the survey. The
closing date for entries to the competition is November 23,
which allows tree hunters to consider trees with or without leaves. The
competition is open to a wide range of ages from five years upwards.
Prizes will be awarded in January 2008, and winning entries exhibited
at Wealden District Council’s offices. Entries can either be:
An original poem of not more than 20 lines,
An original short story of 500 words,
An original art photograph of no larger than A2 size,
An original painting or drawing of no larger than A2 size,
An original sculpture of no greater than 60cm in dimension.
I'm also keen to know about people's favourite trees in the village, because I would like to compile a tree walk leaflet to complement the other village walks that the parish council have recently produced.
You can tell me about your favourite trees in the village by emailing:

Hi Brad Would be willing to help out on this. I kind of like the idea of a tour also with clues to the next stop!

I have lots of favourite trees. For sublime walking among lots of good trees I recommend going at bluebell time (late April ish) up the bridleway track that goes up to the ridge from Ashdown school. It is sublime. (And briskly steep!)
