    In the spirit of the https://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/wheres-this-cairn/ thread, can anyone tell me where this is?

    Edit: a mate sent me the pic.  I’m assuming it’s in southern England somewhere but really have no idea.

    Looks like a field to me. Also a hill.

    Pah. Unimpressed by the usually infallible STW font of knowledge.  I should have offered a prize.

    The only clue I have, if it even is a clue, is he took some kids on a school trip over to the UK (London/Kent) a couple of weeks ago.  Unfortunately, there’s no exif data on the pic, so not sure it’s from then.

    Is it the Royal Oak Shropshire / Staffordshire border? Looks a bit too hilly though

    I thought that too, Stoner, but the surroundings don’t seem to match. I’m stumped 😉

    I thought it might be the tree on this programme I watched awhile back but not so sure now.

    Bowthorpe Oak (Lincolnshire)

    I don’t know where it is but it’s definitely not Bowthorpe.

    That’s why I posted it, but alas, and it’s no fault of the hive, I was a bit hasty in my assumption of an English oak.  Its actually in Navarra ; my mate sent me it as it looks like it *should* be in the UK.  Soz 😳

    So on that anticlimactic note, feel free to post your mystery trees here…

    Is this a stealth advert by the Navarra tourist board?

    Could well be. They certainly need to raise awareness of the tree as I’ve ridden past it half a dozen times and had no idea it was there.
