Savernake Forest, Marlborough 2018 Situated on a chalk plateau just outside Marlborough, Savernake Forest is Britain’s only privately owned forest and home to a concentration of “Veteran” trees that is said to be the highest in Europe. The oldest being ‘Big Belly Oak,’ thought to be over 1100 years old and one of the fifty Great British trees named and honoured as part of the Queen’s Golden Jubilee celebrations. King Henry VIII temporarily resided in Savernake in 1535 to hunt in the forest with Sir John Seymour. It is believed that during these hunting trips he met his future wife Jane Seymour. posted on Instagram - https://ift.tt/2YPhHFO
