St.Serf's Wild Flower Meadow is situated in The Glebe, an area of ground to the rear of St. Serf's Episcopal Church on the eastern edge of the village of Comrie.
In the meadow is an oak tree planted in 1902 to commemorate the coronation of King Edward VII. The tree was planted by Colonel Williamson who donated the land to the church.
The cairn is situated in front of the tree and carries a plaque which reads as follows:
THIS OAK TREE PLANTED BY
COLONEL WILLIAMSON OF LAWERS
CORONATION YEAR 1902
IN HONOUR OF OUR KING
The meadow is situated on the eastern fringe of the village next to a recycling area and a walker's car park. A gate nearby leads into the meadow.
