At the heart of the day’s event was the transfer of a sapling – a descendent of the veteran oak on CCSA - to Long Meadow - so linking the two sites. The 450-year-old great oak was clearly visible on the horizon, towering over its neighbours in the distance. One day our sapling will be a worthy successor to the huge sycamore that once dominated Long Meadow and whose habitat monolith stands guard nearby.
