The Indian bean tree

Elisabeth Alley tells the story of a very special tree

The list of trees to be planted in the Olympic Park (17 August) included an Indian bean. This tree is of particular interest to New Earswick Friends and is featured in the book Discovering New Earswick under the heading ‘Summer spectacular’. It is part of a fascinating chapter in Quaker history.
