Treefold (east) on Little Asby Common is part of an art project, Cumbria Treefolds, celebrating the 800th anniversary of the original Forest Charter.

---

The treefold (east) on Little Asby Common has the first two lines of a poem engraved on some of the stones around the fold - in this circle of land's bones moments gather into wood. (Treefold seeds, ideas, earth, light elements entwine a slow graft of and treefold roots deep, years weathered taking the long view ...make up the rest of the poem). The Cumbria treefolds are one of eight Charter Art residencies curated by Common Ground to celebrate the 800th anniversary of the original Forest Charter and the creation of the new Charter for Trees, Woods and People. The three treefolds were built in 2017.
