The Hermitage Douglas-fir (also known as Ossian's Douglas-fir) was a Douglas-fir tree which stood in The Hermitage pleasure ground, in Dunkeld, Scotland, between and 2017.
It was the first tree in Great Britain to reach 200feet in height;[1] it eventually reached a height of 201.1feet.[2]
The tree was blown over due to high winds in the early hours of 13 January 2017.[3] [4] Thought to have been planted in the 1750s, it was, therefore, around 267 years old at the time it fell.
