map of field in trees

A map of the trees in the far field and middle field. Ash is predominant, as is normal on Irish farms, with whitethorn a close second. Found some unusual ones, cramp bark, which, as its name implies, is used in herbal remedies to relieve cramp, and small elm trees, which are mostly non-existent in Ireland due to dutch elm disease. A new disease has come into Ireland affecting called ash die back, potentially disasterous which would cause major changes to the Irish landscape.
