This is the story of a might oak from the planting of an acorn in 1272 to the death of the last branch during the 1939-45 war. During its long life the oak shelters deer, boar, a highwayman, a family of badgers, nineteenth century picnickers, a poacher and finally the soldier who plants its very last acorn to begin the cycle again.
