What a magnificent tree!  Stunning in fact
I am cruising back from Laleham after some repairs at Harris boatyard and took this picture as I approached Pharaoh's Island which is just above Shepperton lock.
The island was given to Admiral Nelson following his success at the Battle of the Nile.
He used it then as a fishing retreat.
This small island has a number of relatively large residences and is a highly desirable place to live.Interestingly there is no bridge so access is by boat!
