Forge Dam Fairy Door Tree (3)

"Chestnut, plane & sycamore, who or what lies behind the door?" This is the fairy door of Forge Dam. I pass this tree regularly and saw the appearance of the fairy door at various stages, so I know that the door actually hides reinforcements to support the tree where the bank has eroded beneath its roots. The fairy door is such a beautiful touch though, and shows what care can be taken to preserve healthy trees.

(As yet we await confirmation of Beech or Sycamore)
