From tiny acorns

At the end of September I mentioned the forestry commission had harvested a block of mature conifers in Burley Old Enclosure. I passed that way again today and found the forestry have already replanted the block, and this time it appears to be with Oaks.  It's so easy to forget that swathes of the forest we know and love are an artificial construct, the creation of necessity and commerce.
