Cork Oak, Sketching History
I sketched in the park today making a study of this old Cork Oak which was planted by William Fletcher on the occasion of his marriage. The Fletchers have long gone but this wonderful tree is still there.

William Fletcher, resident of Hotham park House travelled around the world collecting plants for his garden. Looking at his planting scheme he might have benefitted from a few lessons from Capability Brown.
