A fallen beech in Knighton Wood

Image: © Andrew Dann Taken: 19 Aug 2006

Knighton Wood was once the wooded garden of a local house. As a result, it has various exotic trees and ponds (see http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/43549). Despite being surrounded now by the suburbs of Woodford Wells and Woodford Green, it has a few rarely visited areas. This mighty fallen beech (known to me as “the Serpent”), is hidden behind holly and brambles, no more than 130m from the nearest road and scarcely 30m from a well trodden path.
