Picture of the Week #140

Queen Elizabeth’s Oak, Greenwich Park. Photo May 1998.

The oak was thought to have been planted in the 12th century and got the name “Queen Elizabeth’s Oak” due to a tradition linking it to her parents, Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn. This seemed an appropriate pick for the anniversary of Elizabeth’s birth at Greenwich Palace.
