Wilton Wold Plantation, East Riding of Yorkshire

The wishing tree

Uploader's Comments

A decaying and part hollow beech tree on the edge of Bishop Wilton Wold. Strangely a small hammer hangs inside on a hook. The reason appears to be so that visitors can use the tool to hammer coins into the trunk. Some people are very strange. Almost enough money in the tree trunk to pay for a pint or two down at the village pub!
