it would make a great special issue stamp.

Agreed, however no-one alive can be on a stamp except the reigning monarch in this country

Did you then take a picture of the heart shaped wood?

I heard its shaped because...(everyone has a different story!)

Some say it was planted as a memorial to a young soldier killed in World War I, others say it was the farmer's way of expressing his love for his wife.

One tale has it that it is the place where two ill-fated lovers met for the final time. They were the offspring of two local farming families who forbade them from their affair, refusing to let them marry. The pair arranged to meet for the final time where the wood stands now - on their meeting he ran her through with his sword, before turning it on himself. The families of the dead lovers were so distraught at the tragedy that they had caused, they planted the wood as a memorial to their love.

The BBC did a story on it a while ago, the result was it was a heart shaped wood because it was planted in a heart shaped field

Brilliant! I think I read that story that it was simply the walls! But I was always told it was where a ww1 pilot crashed and his father planted the trees!
