Grove of sixty oak trees planted on The Mount in the shape of a Victoria or possibly Maltese style Cross, many theories to it's origin.

"..Research by project volunteers have concluded that the most probable is that the 60 trees were planted in the shape of a victoria cross to commemorate Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee in 1897 when she celebrated 60 years on the throne.
