There are ancient trees, tall trees and wide trees, but which is Lancashire’s highest tree?

There are Yew trees dipping their toes in the salty water of the Irish Sea at Jenny Brown’s Point to the south of Silverdale, but which tree could be the highest above sea level? Lancashire Wildlife Trust need your help to find the answer.

I could be wrong, but I’m pretty sure it’s the one growing from a location that is at a higher elevation than all the other ones.

The big Apple in my Nana's back yard for sure. Must be 5 metres high
