Weathered Hawthorn
Reference: DE16
Location: Holwell Tor, Dartmoor
Gallery: Devon,
We headed out to the Tor in very changeable conditions with both sunshine and heavy showers threatening and with the wind picking up strength. As we got closer we had to shelter behind a huge granite boulder and wait for an unpleasant squall to pass through. This location features an iconic Hawthorn Tree which when you get close you can see is actually propped up by a granite boulder, perhaps not surprising given the amount of weather it must have seen over the decades.
