Not a tree itself, but the remains of many trees forming the likeness of one tree

This is our first venture into video. The film of the restoration of the village clock in #Montacute was produced by Yeovil company Grace Productions and we wanted to take it to our audience of #Somerset readers (well hopefully watchers too) somersetconfidential.substack.com/p/restoration
Metal clock face on stone church tower has leached residues of various colours, staining the wall below and giving the superficial appearance of it having melted.
I wonder if the clock on St Catherineβs church tower in #Montacute, Somerset was designed by Salvador #DalΓ.

Very timely for today's #ArchaeologyAdvent door, just last night enthusing about another artefact from #Montacute which is featuring heavily on #WolfHall - the incredible Tournai Tapestry - Henry VIII is shown sitting in front of it frequently, being terrifying ππ°
