The Invisible Tree, Rostrevor
A venerable old oak tree stands tall at the entry to one of Northern Ireland's last remaining ancient woodlands, Rostrevor Oakwood. For generations the tree has greeted visitors to this magnificent woodland and provided a habitat for hundreds of species, including the welcome return of the red squirrel. Sadly, the existence of this tree was erased in a survey and report supporting the construction of apartment blocks and an underground car park within a few metres of its roots and branches. However, this attempt to make a life-supporting tree disappear has instead served to inspire locals and visitors from around the world alike who are now celebrating and spreading the name and fame of ‘The Invisible Tree’ far and wide, ensuring this precious tree becomes more visible by the day.
