That's a wonderful old tree! Maybe some politico could sponsor a bill giving special old trees some form of legal protection. They're national treasures. Seeing them cut down or even pollarded breaks my heart.

It's a treasure! Also highly recommended is his Notes from Walnut Tree Farm and Rufus Deakin andTitus Rowlandson's heavily illustrated Life at Walnot Creek Farm. We have all three!
