Surrey Walk

On Saturday we had planned a long walk, but because of the horrible drizzle and cold we cut it short. We started in Elstead, Surrey, and went to Milford, Eaching and Peper Harow (spelling odd but correct), which is a private village, very quiet. The most striking thing I saw on my walk (and I was mainly looking at the muddy path and talking to people) was this very old yew tree.

Yew tree in Peper Harow churchyard, taken by me, Saturday.
It is between 700 and 800 years old, but for a long time people claimed it was much older.
