Thanks Malcolm and Jim!

Do we know what sot of trees were planted? I’d like to picture them in my imagination.

Hello all,
Timber was a valuable commercial commodity in the construction of houses and furniture and of great interest to the Irish Parliament which passed an act for planting and preserving timber trees and wood in 1705
Initially, it was intended that the parish be responsible for planting trees but the act was amended and the requirement to undertake planting fell upon landholders and leaseholders. Valuable and popular species were oak, fir, elm, walnut, poplar and alder.
Regards,
Len Swindley, Melbourne, Audtralia
