5 /5 REG: It was a beautiful summers day. The breeze was... Stupendous. Like Chris Eubank I almost wanted to dance but he was unavailable to show me how
My morning walk through One Tree Hill Park soundtracked by Paul Simons classic Graceland album really set me up for a day at the home desk this fine monday morning in August.
The park is named for the one tree present which is in fact the Honor oak which gives name to the nearby transit hub and residential area. The Honor oak present today was planted in tribute to one which stood in this place in the Tudor era and saw Elizabeth I grace the ground which sat under it for a regal picnic. To my knowledge Elizabeth II did not grace the replacement tree with the same treatment but I am open to being proved wrong on this!
There is a fantastic view of the London skyline which entertainingly no longer accords with the sign which was placed to detail what should be viewable from this point. The trees directly in front of this viewpoint also obscure some of this fine view with their foliage. Although theyre not meaning to do this I would appreciate if the council would trim them back, as it sort of nullifies the efficacy of the viewpoint. Sort it out Lewisham council!!
Nice for a walk most times of day, there may be people partaking in potentially unsavoury behaviour here in evenings, only bring hardy and worldly children at these times if you must take them!
