Julian Hight is an author, designer, photographer and musician.
His two books ‘Britain’s Tree Story’ and ‘World Tree story’ reflect his passion for trees, not only, their history but also the importance of trees in our modern society.Trees have always inspired him from an early age and filled him with awe and wonder and I, for one, am looking forward to hearing about some of our ancient trees. For example, the hollow oak in Sherwood forest with a girth of 10.5 metres, and another, equally large, in Lincolnshire, which had been pollarded over the years for firewood. The 400-year-old Queen Elizabeth oak in Cowdray Park is so called, because the queen used to hunt there.
I think this will be a wonderful evening - one not to be missed.
Doors open at 7.30 for the talk to start at 8pm.
