Trees of Innocence and make-believe
Many of my formative weekends were spent in these trees:
the Conker Tree, Aesculus hippocastanum, Carr House, Holmfirth
the Beech Tree, Fagus sylvatica, Carr House, Holmfirth
The conker tree was the hardest to climb, and the scariest to be in, all rough and sharp and dangerous - definitely the domain of pirates, picaroons and padfoots.
