Pear Tree in the Car Park
Image: © Des Blenkinsopp Taken: 8 Apr 2020
Undaunted by growing through a hole in the car park tarmac, an old fruit tree is covered in blossom. I know it's a pear tree because later in the year it drops pears on cars parked underneath. In the background are some old cottages and a former barn now used as Wallingford Rowing Club's boathouse.
