Something old, something new

 

magnolia tree on the High

Well, two things old really. One is the University Church of St Mary the Virgin, and the other is the magnolia tree, which has been around so long, Wikipedia tells me, that it is designed to be pollinated by beetles as it *predates bees*. Not a lot of things can say that.

The new thing, of course, is Spring. It's always been, but it's new every time. We budding (arf) gardeners are loving it like that.
