Aging trees!

Recently we have had some logs donated to our school. We are planning to use them in order to create an additional working area in our school grounds. As additional science work some of the children in Class 8 looked at them carefully with Mrs Huntington. We believe the tree is about 200 years old at the base of the trunk and we managed to work out that the branches could be about 89 years old! We had to count all the rings!
