Due to heavy foot-fall, the roots of the giant conifer tree, in the centre of picture, were becoming compacted. The situation was resolved by building a bridge which spans the affected area. Out of picture, to the right, is a deep hollow. This was, in fact, the site of a WWII bomb which, having failed to explode, had to be dug out.
