Wish Tree damage by Anonymous on Sunday, 21 November 2010

I went onto the moor today. Upon arriving at the circle I was shocked to see the oak nearest the circle had been cut... only the bottom few branches near the ground, but still. I was horrified. I remember walking under this magical tree, which is celebrated by many, for years. It has never before been cut in this way. Now no one will be able to hang offerings on its branches. Although the tree will probably benefit in the long run from a little pruning, is nothing sacred on Stanton Moor? I wondered if this is a new attempt by the landowner to curb 'pagans' and others use of the tree? Does anyone know who did this? Also they left the remains of the tree just round the corner, with offerings still hanging from the cut branches- very wrong and disrespectful I think. Surely this will just be used by the campers?
