This is the site of an ancient ironworks down a fairly steep track. There is car parking at the top, but if riding, you will need to dismount. The track ends in an open space at the centre of which is the most enormous plane tree. 6mt diameter trunk branches spreading 40 mts. It is quite breathtaking! Further exploration reveals another giant plane tree and a number of even more ancient yes trees. The stream at the bottom of the glade adds a lovely soundtrack to the place.
