Additional comments
Either one tree that was ‘laid’ as a hedge, or several that have merged into one. The horizontal(ish) trunk is around 3-4m. long, with abt. 20 vertical stems. Unable to measure girth of main trunk. Most measurements approx. Photo 1.shows mossy bit (between 2 un-mossed lumps) which measured 1m. Photo 2 shows part of the tree/s, including part measured above. Further ‘trunks’ in undergrowth to left and right.
