The Monkey Puzzle tree
The tree was a significant feature of the cottage and one which Malcolm respected. An old friend of his mother was an author and, having written a novel called The Monkey Puzzle Tree, asked Malcolm if she could use a picture of the tree for the cover of the book. As it happened, it was never used.

The tree as could be seen when approaching along Vicarage Road
Malcolm planted Heather around the base of the tree ...
... but it never fared very well
Bulbs were also planted which gave a good display in the spring
