Many people are unaware that just along the road at the Church of Saint Mary and Saint Peter, in Wilmington is one of the oldest trees in the world.
Local legend has it that yew tree was planted to celebrate the Romans leaving and has been dated at more than 1,600 years old.
It is an amazing sight.
