An ancient oak tree, probably at least 1,000 years old. Named due to the bulbous base to the trunk.

Savernake Forest is a reminant of the vast ancient woodland which once covered much of Britain. It's a former Royal Stag hunting forest. Today it's privately owned but open to the public and managed by the Forestry England. It's home to numerous ancient trees, mostly Oaks between 1,000 & 1,100 years old. Many are individually named, reflecting the appearance and character of these amazing life forms.

The Big Belly Oak is known as the great grandfather of the historic Savernake oaks, estimated to be around 1,100 years old. This would have meant it sprouted from its tiny acorn at around the time William the Conqueror defeated King Harold in 1066. The Big Belly Oak can be seen at the edge of the A346 between Marlborough and Burbage, but a wander through Savernake Forest is the best way to fully appreciate its impressive age and size.

After the stabby 17%er out of Ramsbury the views are lovely looking East and South over the Wiltshire downs

Erected in 1781, the Ailesbury Column is a defining feature of Savernake Forest. The column was built by Thomas Bruce Earl to thank his uncle for leaving him his estates. The singular column is made from limestone, with a bronze urn at its top.

Look out for deer, squirrels and rare lichens on old trees.
