Also mentioned on the Woodland Trust website is the Witches' Broom which is on the same route 6 (East of Errwood) trail. Although obvious when seen, this is denoted on the route 6 map by a green dot. For a description of this you are best visiting the Woodland Trust on this URL (new window). If this link fails please let me know: 07.02.2024 - The Woodland Trust have kindly confirmed these images do represent Witches' Broom. |

I have this listed under Unclassified but I may be - almost certainly am - wrong. I am making some enquiries and may in due course need to cross link this under Fungi and/or elsewhere. I will also obtain some prettier images when spring returns. |

The tree concerned was devoid of leaves but the carpet underneath was comprised entirely of these leaves. All surrounding (much smaller) trees - Silver Birch. |
