This hungry tree in Tyneham can be seen devouring a stone wall on the approach to the toilets and 'History Barn' coming from the car park.
Tyneham is a ghost village; it was commandeered by the government in 1943 for use as firing ranges for training troops for World War II leaving around 250 residents displaced. In 2009 it is still used by the MOD as a firing range but open to the public whilst not in use for military training, signs in the near display whether it is open or not. There is a £3 honesty box request for all day parking.
