Welcome to my new website!
I’m very proud to reveal my new website! The Hazel Tree has been given a brand new look, and I hope you’ll love it as much as I do.
If you’re already a follower, you will still be able to comment and ‘like’ posts as before. I can confirm that my subscriber list has been transferred successfully to this new site, so if you’re an email subscriber you should get email notifications of new posts automatically, with no need to re-subscribe.
If you’re a newcomer, you are warmly welcome. Please take a look at my About page, and then enjoy sitting under The Hazel Tree at your leisure.
The building, design and transfer of this new site have been done brilliantly by my elder daughter, Verity Sansom. For the logo, my younger daughter, Leonie Mead, came up with a new take on the old design and the result is a gorgeous hazel tree image complete with two happily singing birds. The girls made it look and sound so easy, which I know it is not. My heartfelt thanks to them both!
Stay tuned for more posts on the wonderful landscape, wildlife and historical sites of Scotland, and of course the results of Purdey’s PAWS Awards 2018 (along with a new feline friend who is waiting eagerly to be introduced!) Meanwhile, I hope you’ll enjoy the new site. I’d love to hear what you think!

I have loved your site since I found it. I was looking for the Fraser yew, and got you.Reading about your talented daughters in this post,what a coincidence. My Daughter also lives on the West Coast, of Canada on Quadra Island, and has Waypoint Signs and Picture Framing. She too does a lot of marine and vehicle work as well as stores–and in election season–signs for political candidates. I am as proud of my daughter as you are of yours. My son and daughter in law do the computer stuff.Proud of them too.
Carry on with the lively historical lessons and lovely scenic photography.Janice
Jo Woolf
Thank you very much, Janice! Interesting to hear about what your son and daughter do, and I can see how proud you are! So nice as well if you can go to them for advice! 🙂 I’m interested to hear about the Fraser yew and will look that up. Did you find anything interesting in your search? Best wishes, Jo
