Leicestershire Postcard: The Old Oak Tree, Bradgate Park near Newtown Linford XT1946.
Bradgate Park, first recorded as a deer park in 1241, is home to one of the most significant collections of ancient and veteran oak trees in the UK. The park was famously the birthplace and childhood home of Lady Jane Grey, the "Nine Days' Queen." Local legend holds that the park's ancient oaks were pollarded—their upper branches removed—as an act of mourning following her execution in 1554. This specific ancient tree, estimated to be centuries old, stands as a living witness to the park's rich Tudor history and has survived for generations in this medieval landscape.
This is a used standard size postcard. The publisher is Frederick Hartmann and the country of manufacture is the United Kingdom. This postcard measures 140 mm x 89 mm. The postcard has slight surface wear.
Please also use the image magnifier to make your own assessment on the condition. Please ignore any lines caused by the scanner.
When possible all of our postcards will be posted to you inside a collectable plastic postcard sleeve and a board backed envelope which will be marked 'Please do not bend'.
Any 'Mo's Postcards' watermark does not appear on the actual postcard'.
