  • ... that the Newland Oak in Gloucestershire took "200 years to grow, 200 years to exist, and 200 to die"? "The huge Newland Oak, which probably took at least '200 years to grow, 200 years to exist, and 200 to die', succumbed to decay in 1955" from Hart, Cyril E. (1966). Royal Forest: A History of Dean's Woods as Producers of Timber. Clarendon P. p. 243.

  • Reviewing. New enough, long enough, interesting hook in article and followed by inline citation to a reference with hook fact. QPQ done. Will complete soon. Whispyhistory (talk)
  • Symbol confirmed.svg...image in public domain and size ok. Hook fact is in the book as a quote by Hart. No copyvio issues. Should you say that Hart said it? Otherwise ok. Does Drawing in caption need capital D? Whispyhistory (talk) 04:50, 11 June 2020 (UTC)
  • ALT1: ... that forestry expert Cyril Hart said that the Newland Oak in Gloucestershire took "200 years to grow, 200 years to exist, and 200 to die"?
Thanks for the review, Whispyhistory. I think it's snappier without attribution but I've proposed ALT1 above if that's preferred. I've corrected the capitalisation of "drawing" - Dumelow (talk) 05:52, 11 June 2020 (UTC)
