Black Poplar trees are distinctive along the Thames, mainly because there are so few of them! Please support a new project to restore Black Poplars through the Thames valley by propagating and planting to create a network of new trees. Donate ๐crowdfunder.co.uk/p/qr/qW8YXโฆ

This old Sweet Chestnut in the Bishop's Palace Gardens in Chichester is crumbling into the earth on one side while thriving on the other, its roots fed by mulberries from the tree next to it. #ThickTrunkTuesday @TiCLme @rikardorichards

John's photos ๐งต from Devizes for #HillfortsWednesday
Roundway Down Iron Age Hill Fort in Devizes. Battle of Roundway Down was fought here in 1643 during the English Civil War. Aka Oliver's Camp or Oliver's Castle, even though Cromwell never went there!! A really beautiful place to visit. More brown than green though in August ๐งต1/2

There's still time to object the Oxfordshire local govt reorganisation, which would create a Greater Oxford building on the city's Green Belt.

Yesterday's Goring to Abingdon walk via #TheRidgeway as far as Wallingford. Met Thames Path Champion Wendy at Clifton Lock. Curtis & his wife have excelled themselves this year with their flower display. Ice cream sales fund more plants, so no need to feel guilty! @ThamesPathNT
