- After hearing of the partial collapse of the giant and ancient oak tree know as the Capon Tree, a man decides to search for more of the oldest and largest trees in Scotland ..... all within the Scottish Borders.
Such beautiful ancient trees. I'm sure I could see faces and forms in the bark and twisted branches. What a connection to our past.
Wow, just this morning I was watching some of your older vids and wishing you had posted something new more recently, then...WHAM!!!!
Have you thought of submitting a photo of the Posso sycamore to the National newspaper ? Email address is pictures@thenational.scot
Wonderful adventure in the trees Mark, they are fascinating.
Love trees Love Scotland, Nice to see you back ,👍 Great video 😁

Glad your highlighting these amazing trees. Sad to see the Capon Trees issue. Hope someone can help 🌈
Good to see you back making films, Mark ! Cracking job as always !

Thanks so much for this video! The Scot name Moncrief means 'bough from the sacred tree'.
Another brilliant vid Mark, thank you 👍
Great video nice to see you back safe travels sir can’t wait for your next video thanks Rob from Kent
Good that the split off side of the first tree did not wilt and dry.
Hi Mark, hope you are well, Yay to the end of restrictions, treemendous.
glad to see you on here good video
Wonderful, thank you Mark.🌳🙏 These trees are very special . I have never heard of these trees before and I live in the Scottish Borders, I'm ashamed, being a tree lover. I have recently visited another fantastic tree with a link to our Borders history. It can be found at some woodland in Copshawholme, Newcastleton. There is a recognised walk to it near some old farm ruines that belonged to the Armstrongs. It is also an Ash and is called locally the Hanging Tree 🌳. Used in Reiving times. Sadly it is starting to collapse but still beautiful. 🤗
Nice, I’ll need to take a look some day
Kirk Yetholm Jewes with eyes as sharp as lynx on Thrones. Cheers Mark. ua-cam.com/video/IJIeZx7llRI/v-deo.html

Used to camp there 50years ago for the comman riding in July.
I worked out the when this tree was a nipper, Edmund Ironside was brawling with Cnut the Great from Denmark 20 miles from where I live in Essex, just imagine these trees could actually speak of what they have witnessed, love the story about the monks under the old oak, some local must have runoff and told the village, & the legend is born
Mark, I have to say a special thanks tae ye.....my mothers people were Thom(p)sons from the borders and Glasgow....I am fascinated with their story. With the lack of information available, you are not only telling the stories but giving me a picture of Scottish Borders.....
Thank you!

I wish we could see what those trees have seen over the years! Great recording Mark 👌
Amazing ! Thank you
One of the best things you could do for these heritage trees are, after you record and document them, gather their seeds or nuts and plant them. Then share the seedlings. Those are all very successful trees for their region, those genetics should be spread throughout the region. I would guess a lot of gardeners would like their own historic tree seedling.
Yes!!!
Have planted a few seeds for myself already.
