TQ8718 : Wild service tree at Parsonage Farm
taken 21 years ago, near to Udimore, East Sussex, England
Wild service tree at Parsonage Farm
Photographed in its fine autumn colour, this wild service or chequer tree (Sorbus torminalis) has died following further wind damage. At the time it was thought to be the largest example of its species in the British Isles. See also Link
Many wild service trees colour well in autumn in shades varying from brown, through yellow to crimson. These colour variations seem to be retained throughout the life of the trees
