    Tips

    May 1, 2023

    'The Invisible Tree' is a giant 200-year oak tree that has been in the spotlight due to it's position in a local planning dispute. For generations, the tree has provided habitat for many important species such as the Red Squirrel and has brought visitors from all over to witness its beauty. The existence of the tree was deleted from local plans to build apartments nearby, which caused an uproar in the community and subsequently led to a fight back. The tree was crowned 'Tree of the Year' by the Woodland Trust and permission to build on the land was denied, a victory!

      Visible to most but strangely invisible to council planners the Invisible Tree has become a popular landmark in the village of Rostrevor.
