Trolley 675

Two M&S trolleys captured in the Kokoro Passage, on a day on which it was threatening to rain, hence the umbrella, in the event not opened.

After their return to their stack, spurred on by report of a large tree down at Bourne Hall, I continued around the Ewell Village anti-clockwise, to find that there was indeed a tree down there, although I continue to fail to compute exactly what happened from the snap above, beyond a large tree down which had been growing near the wall, another heritage wall as it happens, dating from the days of the demolished Bourne Hall which preceded the current hall. Bourne, one supposes, for all the water around two sides of the grounds.

What relation does the snapped trunk have to the slab of earth above, a root ball at first glance, pulled up in the fall?

Zoomed, it looks a bit rotten and there is some water visible just beyond what it left of the wall. A large root?

The tree which was above looks healthy enough, suggesting that the problem might have been water below and/or there not being enough roots on the wall side of the tree to hold it. Unable to identify it in the absence of any leaves lying about outside.

The dog gate between the two snaps above. Closed off for the present.
