Place reservation for The history trees : extraordinary tales of trees through timeHere is a collection of the most remarkable trees from around the world, many of which have witnessed key moments in history or reached the scale or age that have allowed them to become history themselves. Meet 'Methuselah', a bristlecone pine in the White Mountains of New Hampshire, is believed to be 4900 years old, whilst its distant neighbour Old Tjikko in Sweden nears it's 10,000 year birthday. Others have inspired great events, such as the Isaac Newton apple tree in Woolhope, Lincolnshire, where the scientist observed the famous apple falling from a tree (which still stands in the family garden).
