The Laund Oak, between Bardon Towers and Storiths is 800 years old.


This spectacular tree is over 800 years old. It is thought to have been named after John of Laund who was the Prior from 1286 to 1330. In the 16th century the Laund Oak marked the point where the Forests of Barden and Knaresborough met. The foresters on the Estate say this wonderful old tree produces some of the best acorns which grow into fine trees. Grid Ref: 57562(OS Outdoor Leisure series York South).
