An old tree appears to have grown 'out of the wall', it is hollow with a large hole through it yet it still lives!
This tree has made a right meal of the church wall it was growing on. It has almost finished 'eating' the bricks below it. It is strange how such a tree in this prominent position has survived for so long, being allowed to munch away the wall below it, without someone noticing and removing it before the carnage became so bad.
The tree is hollow, but still lives. Small children and animals should be wary of venturing inside the hollow, lest they become DESSERT!
