20:18 - Stevenson's Yew


It is know that Robert Louis Stevenson, the famous writer, played under this tree.
A Yew, which is one of the glories of the village. Under the circuit of its wide, black branches, it was always dark and cool, and there was a green scurf over all the trunk among which glistened the round, bright drops of resin
--- from "To Minnie" in "a Child's garden of verses" 1885.
