Remarkable tree, 4.50 m in circumference.
The architecture of this tree bears witness to its history. It has been pruned and pollarded.
This oak is testimony to a "peasant tree". In the past, these trees were pruned regularly, often every nine years when leases were renewed. The branches were used as firewood. The 2-metre pruning prevented the young shoots from being eaten by cattle.
From the road, you can observe the tree's root system and twisted base. Don't miss the beauty of its silhouette.
