22:52 - Malleny Garden - Edinburgh
Some days ago I was looking for a quiet place to gather my thoughts.
Well, astonishingly enough, I found it.
In this garden, which is under the care of the National Trust for Scotland, I found this four yews (Taxus baccata), affectionately known as 'Four Disciples'.
They are the survivors of a group of 12 trees, probably planted around 1635.
Unfortunately, 8 of them were felled by a previous owner of the property as recently as 1961.
Dear readers, I am experiencing a cold (what a Lent!), my activities are a little bit slowed down...
