I take no credit for finding these coppiced limes; they were first recorded by Steven Falk in ‘The Veteran Trees of Warwickshire’ (2011). They are also referenced on the Tree Register, and their location is noted on the Forestry Commission information board at the NE entrance to Oversley Wood. Steven believes they are a single ring: "“Of the small-leaved lime coppice stools, the largest indisputably single one I’ve seen is at Oversley Wood at approximately SP10285621, with a ring of stems 15 metres in circumference. However, even older ones may occur elsewhere in this wood…” However, I have recorded each of the four coppice stools separately on the ATI.
